how well do SAR strategies work in forex? Anyone has good or bad experience with this?

 

They work fine.

 

If you've got the wherewithall to trade Stop & Reverse scenario's & your objectives fit, then why not?

 

They certainly play out ok on the pairs we trade. Doesn't take too much to send these instruments into a short-term frenzy, as you've no doubt already witnessed :D

jobbing? I need to learn new forex or forex English terminology. So are you long or short, tex?

 

I'm short from yesterdays level.

 

In certain cases we incorporate a 'protective' counter position via the fast timeframes when instigating a possible swing position from the off.

 

It's wholly dependant upon how quickly the original (swing) entry moves away. If it begins to dawdle or display resistive behaviour, but we're still comfortable with the level we shorted from, then either I or one of the others will run a half sized (in relation to our original stake) position back against the short to reduce risk on the stops. Given we receive choice-1pip spreads & good fills on size, we can scalp in & out on our usual tech entries until the majority of the stop risk is covered.

 

It's only operated once!! If the original entry gets snatched, the position has more or less flattened.

 

Once price moves away in our desired direction, the trade continues as normal.

I've pulled this short for a loss of 7pips.

 

We're heading into the UK Indust Production numbers in 30mins & this is just faffing around aimlessly down here.

 

We'll have another peep at it as the numbers print.

Lets just play this via the shorter intraday levels Anna.....it's not ready to step in on wider stops/step thru's as yet....way too jittery........

 

30m - hourly reversals off the Fib-Pivot-bar signals.....wait till we get a better nod from the fundamental sway...........

Yep, possible I'm jumping the gun before London. I'm still learning to incorporate market openings and closings. But for the moment, I'm focused on the price action on chart and see if openings can be seen in the charts.

 

 

quite the contrary......in fact you look like you've got a handle on a good, solid method of playing these pairs by your chart & trade examples........

 

if it aint broke, don't fiddle with it!!!............

 

your style clearly suits your surroundings & you're obviously bringing skills from your index futures life onto the currency field?........

Yes, it seems that way, I've never seen any instruments that trend so well. I mentioned to Tex that my performance is much better than futures so far (been only trading forex 2 months I believe). Not enough to say but so far so good. The big move back in December helped alot, but can't say I may see it again until next December?? Lord knows how I do well or better because what I use there is same as here. I get the impression that there is less noise and moodiness and not many outside factors affecting forex than futures. Thanks for Tex of course for guiding me since the beginning of this forum, and now you. Thanks for the compliments! They suit me well too LOL!

:D yeah, they do their fair share of trending that's for sure!........don't get too loved up with Cable though ;)

 

there are a good few instruments out there which truck along handsomely!.....I know most of the examples hauled up on here carry a heavy Cable bias, & that's partly our fault - but it's not the be all & end all......

 

I don't think it would do any harm to expand the flavor of these weekly threads to incorporate "other" pairs??.......after all, technicals are technicals, whatever the picture.........

 

sure, Cable/Euro & Swiss attract major participation, and account for a good lick of traffic during the London-New York crossover, but to neglect the other instruments isn't really doing justice to the currency canvas.........

 

if you've got a workable & tight strategy template, you can very easily switch & swap between those displaying the more favorable set-up triggers ;)

Buk, I'd like some insight from a dilemna I had in the previous thread was how to deal with an intraday and make it a swing. I had paper profit position and thought it was appropriate to take to swing a trade. It didn't pan out. What criteria do you use to find which intraday trades are suitable to become swing trades?

Yes, great idea. I love to see some charts of other pairs as well, food for thought. I started trading EURJPY a few days ago, in fact I'm long that pair now. I'm slowly opening myself to up others. But I have to be careful not to spread myself too thin and become careless with each. Tough choices.

I took a long entry at 29 - going in the same direction as the dominant asian trend, on that famous asian/london cross pull-back I like so much.

 

:) nailed that one (again) huh??......it's certainly favoring the shorter range signals for the time being..........

 

our mid-term outlook is getting trashed at the mo - time to skinny down to the smaller frames on this pair for the time being me thinks!

 

appears Jan is showering you in a nice smelling scent of $$'s LOL........

well judging by the recent performance, you'd be better popping out to your local supermarket & engaing in conversation with the 1st old lady you come across..........:D she'll have more of an idea than we do at present!!!

 

but the tack we take regards running positions, always matures or morphs from an an intial intraday entry........

 

for that, I use the 4hr frame....that's my template!........I love bullish/bearish engulfing & doji-hammer formations....period!

 

if we see a stall or consolidation occuring on or around a major Fib-pivot zone, & the 4hr-1hr is setting up at one of our favored candle formations, we'll drill into the 5/15m charts & look for a low risk entry..........

 

once we get positioned, we focus purely on the next stage tech levels in relation to the 4hr timeframe..........we'll scale out at our (yours will be different) usual reference points: next stage pivot/fib line, or a defined s&r zone on the hourly & keep remaining stops tucked back at entry to test whether the move is genuine or not.........

 

65% of the time, those remaining stakes/stops will get snatched somewhere between it's resting level & next days activity - that's simply the rub of the green with currencies............

 

once price continues in the original direction, we compound back (those stakes which we banked) on fresh intraday signals & trail remaining stakes to either an hourly or 4hrly bar of technical significance..........

 

on a decent move away from a technical turn, we'll achieve an avg 2.5 - 4c return from an approx .5c risk...........

 

however, you have to get used to dropping a portion of your stake in return for testing the intent of price?!........it's a "trade-off" in seeking larger value.........

That is by far the hardest part of swing trading that I have found. You have to have the guts to give up (sometimes considerable) numbers of pips in order to let price test genuine momentum. It's a tough psychological nut to crack at the best of times. :)

So you plan from the top down also. Basically you scale in with each pullback showing new higher highs/lows (longs as examples).

 

Regarding setting stops, are they set from 240-min or from 15-min? This is the problem is that if I decide to take my intraday trade to swing, I may have to widen my stop to fit the new swing. This is somewhat psychological difficult to do as I'm taking more risk than I'm willing to take. There isn't a better way then?

firstly, let me try illustrate in as near a 'real time' scenario as possible, to give you a flavor of what I'm currently looking at??..........

 

what I'm seeking is confirmation I want the chart to tell me I'm wrong & should be staring in the opposite direction!

 

so, sticking to my strat guide & observations from my template frame, I have the mid-term view of current positioning.......we've broken a strung out range & are attempting an each-way battle to either re-engage the range for another attempt to gain lost ground...........or a continued bearish decline toward the next major technical zone.........straightforward from this timeframe perspective?

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=471&stc=1&d=1168513787

 

 

 

then drilling down into the 60m frame, I clearly see my markers from the recent H-L activity & I'm again looking for weakness in line with current momentum...........OR signals to the contrary that I ought to looking for a reverse & strength back into the range.........my chosen price aids (Fibs-Pivots) are the tools, alongside the price bars, which will prove me right or wrong........I'm still seeking confirmation that we're changing course from bear to bull??

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=472&stc=1&d=1168513826

 

 

I then drill further down to my smaller frame buddies to see what's occuring at that level...........are there any common themes there which we like to trigger??..........are we butting any major s&r or attacking a prev top line from the higher timeframes??............is price pulling back in an attempt to strike North thru the next technical level of resistance..........or is it weakening further as the demand dies & supply kicks in??....what shape are the price bars taking on at this juncture??

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=473&stc=1&d=1168513826

 

 

is it worth "shorting here" (in line with the prev flow) & absorbing small risk to test the intent.........or should we wait a while & see if the $ bulls can hold this line...........a break up here negates the short-term bearish flow....and renders my "selling the rallies" stance impotent...........

 

therefore, we then require to slip back to a shorter model, intraday stance to again negotiate the "range trading conditions"...........

 

time & patience..........we've already gotten a bloody nose from trying to short it farther back.....so, I want to ensure this recent price activity isn't a sustained move on the part of the $ Bears to kick this North again..........

 

my hunch (& Anna's trigger button) is for the "short" at a better value area, in line with the higher timeframe flow to give it another test of intent..........

 

I'm not particularly bothered whether I'm right or wrong to be honest (coz they'll be ample opportunity to grab the losses back later), only that I obtain decent risk in exchange for fair value................

 

the stops will reside at the TIMEFRAME OF ENTRY.......& once/if the move gets underway, the scenario will be adjudged accordingly & altered as required.............

Buk, what do you do when you notice price attacking key levels of interest during a time when an important item of news is due for release. Taking your above example, price is attacking the 78.6% fib, but we are also due to see whether the UK rates are revised higher or left neutral.

 

Do you take on a position such as this even when we are within a few hours of a major news announcement? Or do you hold fire until the news has passed and possibly suffer the consequences of not getting in at your desired level?

For the record, I decided to close my trade pre-UK news for +55 on my remainder, due heavily to a nasty problem that Oanda is currently having. During the last 4 hours, Oanda's connection has dropped out on me probably 20 or 30 times. I don't feel as though I can maintain and reliably manage a position when they're having problems this severe - particularly with an important news item due for release. I'll bank my profits and go home instead of pulling my hair out on the off-chance I might have a connection when I need it. I've talked with their tech support twice now, and they're about as all-knowing concerning this problem as rocks are in an open desert.

Good question Cary, & by now ( I mean historically) you'll already know the answer to that!

 

Never ignore the key announcements. Everyone & his dog (including us) has been caught out by the major Fundamental traps. You only really make that mistake once, if you're fortunate!

 

We already had positive news out earlier which bounced it up. And just look what occured on the surprise hike. Most of the talking heads were poo pooing & hike this month, shows what they know.

 

You haven't got a cat in hells chance of bailing out if you step on the wrong side of a skewed news release, certainly not one of the major releases, of which any countries interest rate announcement qualifies.

 

You can live & breath if you happen to miss a technical entry or exit & have to take a few pips to the negative, but you'll quickly bleed if you stupidly take on the major news announcements.

 

There are plenty of empty/blown accounts to testify to that fact.

That'll do it for me today, folks. Oanda's up and down like a Mexican jumping bean on a hot griddle. They're completely unreliable today - which is, I must say, the first time I've seen them have this big of a problem since I started trading with them over a year ago. Nonetheless, there's no way to get a decent entry when their platform is up and down so much. Just too unreliable today.

 

I hope some of you are able to extract profits from this suprise rate decision! I'll try to hitch a ride tomorrow, if the market is willing.

Yeah, that is precisely the response I was hoping I'd hear. Buk's comments had me wondering whether he would attempt to tag a position so close to the UK news, so I just had to ask. You hit the nail on the head concerning my feelings.

 

For those who aren't as familiar with forex, take a good close look at the TICK prices of this release and you'll see how hopeless a bad position would have been. Also take into consideration the whopping 20-pip spread that many brokers tack onto prices a mere few seconds before the major news is released, and you'll quickly discover why it's a dangerous game to engage positions near the news. So far as I know, there is NO STRATEGY that is immune to the wicked plays that occur around major news releases. I've tried several (and died trying) when I first started learning forex. You might as well play Russian Roulette, cause the odds are about the same.

 

Thanks again, Texxas!

and back to the 240min for some guidance............

 

same process when starting out again from scratch.......what is price doing now & what are the options based on the current scenario?!

 

re-assess the conditions, pick the strat & try get a leg onto the next potential move away!

    • Date: 4th April 2025.   USDJPY Falls to 25-Week Low as Safe Havens Surge and Markets Eye NFP Data.   Safe haven currencies and the traditional alternative to the US Dollar continue to increase in value while the Dollar declines. Investors traditionally opt to invest in the Japanese Yen and Swiss Franc at times of uncertainty and when they wish to avoid the Dollar. The Japanese Yen continues to be the best-performing currency of the week and of the day. Will this continue to be the case after today’s US employment figures?   USDJPY - NFP Data And Trade Negotiations The USDJPY is currently trading at a 25-week low and is witnessing one of its strongest declines this week. The exchange rate is no longer obtaining indications from the RSI that the price is oversold. The current bullish swing is obtaining indications of divergence as the price fails to form a higher high. Therefore, short-term momentum is in favour of the US Dollar, but there are still signs the Japanese Yen can regain momentum quickly.       USDJPY 1-Hour Chart     The price movement of the exchange rate in both the short and long term will depend on 3 factors. Today’s US employment data, next week’s inflation rate and most importantly the progress of negotiations between the US and trade partners. If today’s Unemployment Rate increases above 4.1%, the reading will be the highest seen so far in 2025. Currently, the market expects the Unemployment Rate to remain at 4.1% and the Non-Farm Payroll Change to add 137,000 jobs. The average NFP reading this year so far has been 194,000.   If data does not meet expectations, US investors may continue to increase exposure away from the Dollar and to other safe-haven assets. Previously investors were expecting only 2 rate cuts this year from the Federal Reserve, however, most investors now expect up to 4. If today’s employment data deteriorates, economists advise the Federal Reserve may opt to cut interest rates sooner.   Therefore, it is important to note that today’s NFP will influence the USDJPY to a large extent. Whereas in the longer-term, trade negotiations will steal the spotlight. If trade partners are able to negotiate the US Dollar can correct back upwards. Whereas, if other countries retaliate and do not negotiate the US Dollar will remain weak.   USDJPY - The Yen and the Bank of Japan The Japanese Yen is the best-performing currency in 2025 increasing by 6.70% so far. Risk indicators such as the VIX and High-Low Indexes continue to worsen which is positive for the JPY as a safe haven currency.   Yesterday Japan released March business activity data that came in weaker than expected: the Services PMI dropped from 53.7 to 50.0, while the Composite PMI fell from 52.0 to 48.9. The data is the lowest in two years. These figures could hinder further interest rate hikes by the Bank of Japan. However, most economists still expect the Bank Of Japan to hike at least once more. It's also important to note, that even if the BOJ opts for a prolonged pause, a cut is not likely.   Additionally, a 24% tariff was imposed on Japanese exports to the US yesterday. Prime Minister Mr Ishiba expressed disappointment over Japan's failure to secure a tariff exemption and pledged support measures to help domestic industries manage the impact.   Key Takeaway Points: US Dollar Weakens, Safe Havens Rise: The Japanese Yen and Swiss Franc continue to gain as investors shift away from the US Dollar. USDJPY Under Pressure: USDJPY trades at a 25-week low, with short-term momentum favouring the Dollar but long-term trends pointing to potential Yen strength. NFP and Unemployment Crucial: Today’s Non-Farm Payrolls and unemployment figures will heavily influence short-term USDJPY. On the other hand, trade negotiations will dictate longer-term trends. Japan Faces Mixed Signals: Despite weak PMI data and new US tariffs, the Japanese Yen remains strong. Economists expect at least one more rate hike from the Bank of Japan, but no cuts are in sight.

    • YUM Yum Brands stock, nice breakout with volume +34.5%, from Stocks to Watch at https://stockconsultant.com/?YUM
    • Date: 3rd April 2025.   Gold Prices Pull Back After Record High as Traders Eye Trump’s Tariffs.   Key Takeaways:   Gold prices retreated after hitting a record high of $3,167.57 per ounce due to profit-taking. President Trump announced a 10% baseline tariff on all US imports, escalating trade tensions. Gold remains exempt from reciprocal tariffs, reinforcing its safe-haven appeal. Investors await US non-farm payroll data for further market direction. Fed rate cut bets and weaker US Treasury yields underpin gold’s bullish outlook. Gold Prices Retreat from Record Highs Amid Profit-Taking Gold prices saw a pullback on Thursday as traders opted to take profits following a historic surge. Spot gold declined 0.4% to $3,122.10 per ounce as of 0710 GMT, retreating from its fresh all-time high of $3,167.57. Meanwhile, US gold futures slipped 0.7% to $3,145.00 per ounce, reflecting broader market uncertainty over economic and geopolitical developments.   The recent rally was largely fueled by concerns over escalating trade tensions after President Donald Trump unveiled sweeping new import tariffs. The 10% baseline tariff on all goods entering the US further deepened the global trade conflict, intensifying investor demand for safe-haven assets like gold. However, as traders locked in gains from the surge, prices saw a modest retracement.   Trump’s Tariffs and Their Market Implications On Wednesday, Trump introduced a sweeping tariff policy imposing a 10% baseline duty on all imports, with significantly higher tariffs on select nations. While this move was aimed at bolstering domestic manufacturing, it sent shockwaves across global markets, fueling inflation concerns and heightening trade war fears.   Gold’s Role Amid Trade War Escalations Despite the widespread tariff measures, the White House clarified that reciprocal tariffs do not apply to gold, energy, and ‘certain minerals that are not available in the US’. This exemption suggests that central banks and institutional investors may continue favouring gold as a hedge against economic instability. One of the key factors supporting gold is the slowdown that these tariffs could cause in the US economy, which raises the likelihood of future Federal Reserve rate cuts. Gold is currently in a pure momentum trade. Market participants are on the sidelines and until we see a significant shakeout, this momentum could persist.   Impact on the US Dollar and Bond Yields Gold prices typically move inversely to the US dollar, and the latest developments have pushed the dollar to its weakest level since October 2024. Market participants are increasingly pricing in the possibility of a Fed rate cut, as the tariffs could weigh on economic growth.   Additionally, US Treasury yields have plummeted, reflecting growing recession fears. Lower bond yields reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold, making it a more attractive investment.         Technical Analysis: Key Levels to Watch Gold’s recent rally has pushed it into overbought territory, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) above 70. This indicates a potential short-term pullback before the uptrend resumes. The immediate support level lies at $3,115, aligning with the Asian session low. A further decline could bring gold towards the $3,100 psychological level, which has previously acted as a strong support zone. Below this, the $3,076–$3,057 region represents a critical weekly support range where buyers may re-enter the market. In the event of a more significant correction, $3,000 stands as a major psychological floor.   On the upside, gold faces immediate resistance at $3,149. A break above this level could signal renewed bullish momentum, potentially leading to a retest of the record high at $3,167. If bullish momentum persists, the next target is the $3,200 psychological barrier, which could pave the way for further gains. Despite the recent pullback, the broader trend remains bullish, with dips likely to be viewed as buying opportunities.   Looking Ahead: Non-Farm Payrolls and Fed Policy Traders are closely monitoring Friday’s US non-farm payrolls (NFP) report, which could provide critical insights into the Federal Reserve’s next policy moves. A weaker-than-expected jobs report may strengthen expectations for an interest rate cut, further boosting gold prices.   Other key economic data releases, such as jobless claims and the ISM Services PMI, may also impact market sentiment in the short term. However, with rising geopolitical uncertainties, trade tensions, and a weakening US dollar, gold’s safe-haven appeal remains strong.   Conclusion: While short-term profit-taking may trigger minor corrections, gold’s long-term outlook remains bullish. As global trade tensions mount and the Federal Reserve leans toward a more accommodative stance, gold could see further gains in the months ahead.   Always trade with strict risk management.
