ab=cd pattern

Welcome to the video update for Monday, March 28th.   Looking back on the weekly Silver chart, Trader Rick reviews the 9/30 aggressive buy setup that resulted in a potential profit of about 9 dollars or $45k.  Note also the slingshot and the MACD buy setups.  If you are a position trader these are key things to look for.  This could easily be a 5 minute chart and the setups would apply.  This is a good chart to study, even if it is in retrospect.

Looking at the weekly EUR/USD pair chart, this past week was a narrow range week, indicating hesitation.  Will we continue moving higher or will we see a retracement?  Note the support level IF price retraces in to the buy zone.  On the 60 min EUR/USD pair chart, see which pattern Trader Rick is watching for Monday’s trading.

Next chart is the 13,500 volume euro where a very familiar chart pattern is reviewed.  This pattern took place last week and the target was hit.

In the stock indexes, study the 9/30 on the 129,600 volume  ES chart that took place last Thursday.  An aggressive 9/30 buy setup was supported by previous price action.  Quality setups such as this on a large timeframe are worth watching very closely.  The risk is typically higher but the probability of success are higher.  If you dial down to a lower timeframe risk can be minimized, even if it takes more than one attempt to get on board.

Last chart is the 2 bar per day ES chart, price continues moving higher after the bullish ab=cd pattern we talked about last week.  See one concern Trader Rick has on this chart.  IF price retraces watch for support in the 1292 area.

Good trading!
