Confirmation Bias

2ef47s8.jpg


Recent swing high / low on the Daily chart. (See Arrows)

Be careful when examining charts in this manner. You open yourself up to confirmation bias, especially with MA's on the chart . The first down arrow. Is that a consolidation or is it really a swing high? The MA's to some extent colour your perception of what is really happening. To increase your accuracy, you need a firm definition of what is a swing high and what is a swing low. However you wish to define swing high and low's, make sure you stick with it.

Hi Rayner

I reckon the USD dollar trend is weakening after a long uptrend. Any comments from your side? Thanks

Rayner might have a better interpretation.

As for me USD might dip further but not much. May will be a good month to see the direction of the USD, which I bet it will remain hawkish.

EURUSD might touch 1.103xx, then again beware a hawkish FOMC tonite if you long this pair.

I believe in going with the major trend but I keep my ears on the econ news for double confirmation.

I agree with your analysis. Rayner claims to be 100% Technical, by all counts the Technical readings all signal a Bear environment.

Hello everyone!

Yes the long term rally of the dollar is showing signs of weakness after the break of support and upward trend line.

I'm neutral on the dollar right now. However one thing to note is that the dollar index is heavily skewed towards the Euro of about 57%

GBPUSD - 11 straight years, including this April, GBP reigns in April. So see you next April.

With $4k today, earn $600 profit.
intraday trading on major pairs, spend 8hours.
If everyday can earn this good, no need go out work.

Pull my trigger too early, now got fish no dollars.:s13:

I still will short it. Nonetheless, a strong resistance is in 1.13xxx.
Call it a day and let market play out.

I may be wrong, but caution on shorting Euro. I think the market is buying Euro against the crosses.
