Silver and Gold flying high – USD/CHF and USD/CAD analysis [Video]

USD was weaker based on bad Services PMI yesterday.  How can we take advantage?

Whenever we see quick moves against the trend, we look to get back into the trend and open a position.

For example, on USDCHF, price action fell to this lower trend line and the stochastic oscillator is very oversold.

If we move out to the daily chart we see a long bull run that started at the end of last year and levels of resistance above so we still have room to move.

We see the same situation on USDCAD on the 4-hour chart…and the daily chart.

On the pairs where we have USD as the base currency, we have the opposite situation but wait for confirmation before going short.

Also, if you are trading any USD or CAD pairs, watch out for tomorrow’s NFP and Canadian Employment data.

You may remember we looked at a long trade on Silver.

Well, look what happened.

Silver is not at an all-time high so we have a lot of room to move.

Just be aware of your favourite technical indicators.

That’s all for now.

CFDs and FX are leveraged products and your capital may be at risk.
