It’s Sunday again and that means the time to look at the chart and plan possible trades for the coming week. The price has been sitting around the 30’s level for a few days, what’s more interesting there were three inside daily candles so a possible break out could bring a somewhat stronger move, especially when you realize it is a start of a new week.
The market is currently at a quite significant point, which should imply some nice price action ahead. A break above could have attack at least the last week’s maximum. However there’s one thing worrying me: similar break above happened last week and it couldn’t reach even my first profit target. So I’m cautious now. On the other side after a possible failed break above 136 we could see a strong sell-off down to 105 at least.
With that said let’s set up the buy and sell points (Mt.Gox chart).
Buy 137.00, SL 130.90, PT1 144.50 PT2 160 PT3 175
Sell 127.40, SL 134, PT1 122.00 PT2 112 PT3 106
A look back at the last week’s trades:
The buy order was triggered, but hadn’t reached any of the targets. However, even when the market wasn’t being marching higher as steeply as in the previous weeks, you could book a nice profit of more than 20% when closing around the max. Of course, such a timely exit would had been not according to my strategy, but hey, taking profits is a more individual thing than opening a position. I personally like to leave the market some space for moving up or down even with a chance of ending at B/E or a loss. That was the last week’s case (BE).
