Currency Futures Trading: Day Trading Futures Tech Recap 3/9/10

Posted by: Richard Estrada  //  Category: Currency Futures Trading

As the March contracts get ready to rollover to June, currency traders day trading futures, specifically the currency futures market are taking what appears to be a respite. The question for currency traders tonight is will we see this quite currency futures trading continue, or will the currency futures market wake up and take no prisoners.

The daily chart of the March 2010 British Pound Futures contract (see chart below) shows that the bulls were once again held below the 5-day moving average (red – 1.5040) in Tuesday’s trading session. The low of tonight in my opinion becomes a pivotal area of technical support, while a run back above the 5-day moving average may trigger some short-term upside momentum and or maybe short coverings.

The daily chart of the March 2010 Canadian Dollar Futures contract (see chart below) shows that the bulls are holding the market just above the 5-day moving average (red .9724), which continues to be a pivotal area of technical support. A break below this average and currency traders might see some technical downside pressure at least over the short-term. If the market holds this area then the high of .9792 comes into play on the long side.

The daily chart of the March 2010 Euro Currency Futures contract (see chart below) shows that the Euro Currency is holding below a pivotal area of technical resistance, which on this chart consists of the 5 (red – 1.3606) and 25 day (blue – 1.3630) moving averages. A run back above this area and we could see some aggressive short-coverings as well as short-term longs, while a failure to run pass this technical area will put the bulls on the defensive again.

The daily chart of the March 2010 Japanese Yen Futures contract (see chart below) shows that the bulls are facing tuff technical resistance in the area of the 5 (red – 1.1126), 25 (blue – 1.1121) and 75 (green – 1.1105) moving averages. The question for currency traders tonight is can they (bulls) get back above this area, or will the bears continue to do what they started to do last Friday?

Currency Futures Trading: Day Trading Futures Recap 3/5/10

Posted by: Richard Estrada  //  Category: Currency Futures Trading

Currency Traders trading currency futures today watched the British Pound Futures explode through the 5-day moving average, whilel the Japanese Yen Futures tumbled from the same 5-day moving average. The Canadian Dollar was once again was rather quiet, well the Euro Currency again tested the 25-day moving average. What did technical cues can we get from today’s action that traders day trading currency futures might be able to use Sunday and or Monday of next week?

The weekly chart of the British Pound Futures (see chart below) clearly shows today’s close is back towards the top one-third of the bar, which in my opinion is technically bullish. Though, the 4-week moving average (red – 1.5378) is still a formidable area of technical resistance.

The weekly chart of the Canadian Dollar Futures (see chart below) shows that the bulls were able to push this market higher this week, but failed to take out the next cycle high of .9798. Thinking strategically, what looks like a certainty is almost never a certainty especially when talking about currency futures trading, of course this is just an opinion of mine? Will the bulls look to make a play for .9798 on Sunday night or Monday, or will some bold bears look for a potential market reversal?

The weekly chart of the Euro Currency Futures (see chart below) shows that the bulls were able to close the Euro Currency above the 4-week moving average (red – 1.3620), which might be considered somewhat of bullish indication. You also notice that the lows around .13433 are very close the .618% fibonacci retracement line (1.34820). An open above the 4-week moving average on Sunday might encourage some technical upside momentum, which could lead to an aggressive up being that there might be a lot of weak shorts in late.

The weekly chart of the Japanese Yen Futures (see chart below) shows that the bears were able to push this market down over 150 ticks from its’ weekly high (1.1346). This market is trading back at the 4 (red – 1.1089) and 13-week (blue – 1.1042)-moving averages, which in my opinion makes this area a pivotal technical area on Sunday night. A break below this area and the bears might me in position to make a technical move, well a hold in this puts the bears on the defensive.

Posted by: Richard Estrada  //  Category: Currency Futures Trading

Currency traders speculating in the currency futures market are again confronted with extreme short-term volatility. These currency futures markets are definitely not for the meek or anyone who is looking for a passive investment. Currency Futures Trading over the last several weeks have seen some large swings and we may continue to see this kind of volatility as the contracts get ready to rollover.

The March 2010 British Pound Futures contract (see chart daily chart below) was able to rise above the 5-day moving average (red – 1.5022), but was unable to keep that early upside momentum. Once again bulls are faced with late downside pressure and now the question is can the bulls hold the BP above the 5-day moving average and make another upward push, or will the bears regain control?

The March 2010 Canadian Dollar Futures contract (see chart below) shows that the market is still holding above the 5-day moving average (red – .9667), which in my opinion is a pivotal area of technical support. Will the bulls look to launch another upward move from this area, or can the bears counter and push the market back down from here?

The March 2010 Euro Currency Futures contract (see daily chart below) clearly shows that the bears were able to counter this week’s up move in the vicinity of the 25-day moving average (blue – 1.3666). The question now for currency traders tonight is will we see the bear continue to push hard to the downside, or is today’s down move an opportunity for short cover tonight and tomorrow?

 

The March 2010 Japanese Yen Futures contract (see daily chart) shows that the JY fell hard after making a new weekly high (1.1346). You will notice that the market even pierced the 5-day moving average (red – 1.1246) to the downside, which might instigate some further selling.

Currency Futures Trading: A Weekly Technical Preview 2/28/10

Posted by: Richard Estrada  //  Category: Currency Futures Trading

Currency Traders witnessed large volatility in the currency futures market in the month of February 2010. The question for currency traders going into the month of March is will see the same kind of large swings and extreme short-term volatility, or will currency futures trading this month be a little more subdued? The only honest answer to that question is we will just have to wait and see.

The weekly chart of the British Pound Futures (see chart below) shows that since breaking out of a bear flag formation (outlined by black trend lines) the bears have been in total control. You will also notice that the 4-week moving average (red) has been a pivotal area of technical resistance and in my opinion an area to watch in you are looking for a reversal.

The weekly chart of the Canadian Dollar Futures (see chart below) shows that this market is trading right at the 13-week moving average (blue), which has been a pivotal area of technical support since the bulls were able to push the market above the 52-week moving average (green) back in April of last year. The question for currency traders this week is will the bulls be able to make another upward push, or will the bears look to make a move?

The weekly chart of the Euro Currency Futures (see chart below) shows that the Euro Currency has found technical support in the vicinity of the 61.8% fibonacci retracement line (1.3482). You will also notice that the Euro Currency is trading right at the 4-week moving average (red – 1.3615), which in my opinion will be a pivotal technical area and a good gauge of technical momentum this week.

The weekly chart of the Japanese Yen Futures (see chart below) shows that the market is swinging hard above and below both the 4 (red) and 13-week (blue) moving averages. With the Japanese Yen Futures currently trading above these averages, then I interpret this market as technically bullish, but a break back below these average and we could see an agreesive sell-off at least over the short-term.
