I missed an awesome trading opportunity to short the eurusd yesterday. This is because I somehow missed a very important resistance level on the weekly timeframe. I have taken this as a learning experience to be more thorough in my analysis of the currency pairs. The chart below notes the mentioned resistance at the 1.2990 level. This is where price tested the trendline resistance. Since I missed out on the first leg down, I am waiting for a retracement to test the 1.2960 level to short. I am unsure of how far the retracement will go, so I am going to be watching it on a 15-minute timeframe. The red horizontal line on the chart marks the level I am considering for a stop loss (1.3100), and the green line indicates my profit target (1.2700).

 

This will make it almost a 1:2 risk/reward ratio.

    thanks. How do you find these support and resistance levels? Is it from Fibonacci levels or from previous highs and lows?

    Hi Evan. My stops are usually placed above major resistance areas, while I try to exit my trades just before major support or resistance areas (support in this case). I use my trendlines to mark these areas. Thanks for reading :)
