NZD JPY BEAR CROWN SETUP MAJOR YEN GAINS AHEAD ~ morning forex trading system

After a strong Uptrend that started in 2013 and which has been defined by an Inner and an Outer Uptrend Line, a large Bear Crown/Head & Shoulders pattern has now appeared to signal the start of a new Downtrend in favour of the Yen. This pattern, along with Double Bottoms, Double Tops and Consolidation Breakouts are the typical setups seen ahead of a major change in market direction. Given the size of this Bear Crown setup and the fact that this has been formed on the Daily Chart, there is a large probability that the Japanese Yen will appreciate significantly against the Kiwi over the next few months and years to come.

Taking a look at the broader picture, we can see the direction of this pair over the last 6 years.

DAILY CHART - LARGE UPTREND 2009-2015

A closer look at this pair reveals a large Bear Crown/Head and Shoulders Pattern that has now been formed at the Inner Uptrend Line.

DAILY CHART - BEAR CROWN SETUP

This type of setup is normally associated with trend changes on all time frames, but when they are seen on the larger charts such as the Daily or Weekly, they usually indicate that a major trend change is about to take place.

CROWN/HEAD & SHOULDERS SETUPS

There is normally a setup on the left-hand-side of the chart such as a Counter Trend Line or a Consolidation that forms the Left Tip/Shoulder. This is then broken in the direction of the trend before the market U-Turns to form the Centre Tip/Head, pulling back towards and often breaking existing Trend Lines. Following this, the market then continues moving sideways to form the Right Tip/Shoulder taking the shape of another Counter Trend Line or Consolidation. This setup will then be broken as the pair begins to form a new trend.

Taking a closer look, we can see that the Pennant that represents the Right Tip of the Crown lies on top of the major Inner Uptrend Line. This means that any break out short would break both the Support and the Uptrend Lines to provide us with two strong signals that indicate the start of a new Downtrend.

DAILY CHART - RIGHT TIP SETUP

DAILY CHART - POSSIBLE BREAKOUT

If this Breakout Candle is a Normal Candle and is supported by a strong setup on the 4 Hour Chart that conforms to the criteria of this Trade Sheet, we could capture a comfortable profit of 200 Pips from the breakout. 

TRADE SHEET SETUP

Given that this would be a Consolidation Breakout, the movement is expected to be very fast, taking only 3 - 12 days to hit this and other short-term targets.

With Consolidation Setups such as these, there is generally a 50-50 chance of a breakout in either direction when these setups are examined in isolation. However, within the context of this large Bear Crown Setup that has taken a year to be formed, a sustained breakout bearish for strong Japanese Yen gains is the more likely outcome.

GBP JPY STRONG BREAKOUT STARTED ABOVE LARGE CONSOLIDATION - my forex trading system

GBP JPY STRONG BREAKOUT STARTED ABOVE LARGE CONSOLIDATION ~ my forex trading system

This pair has been in a very strong Uptrend that began in 2012, forming an Inner and Outer Uptrend Line and 2 Large Pennant Consolidations. 

DAILY CHART - STRONG UPTREND

We can now see that it has started to breakout from this 2nd Pennant with strong Bullish Candles above Resistance.

DAILY CHART - PENNANT BREAKOUT

The manner in which this started is one of 3 ways in which these Consolidation setups tend to be broken in this market.

1) The First is when the market simply provides a Single Breakout Candle without any pullbacks;

2) The Second way is when the market pulls back on the inside of the barrier and then U-Turns to provide the breakout signal;

3) The Third way- which is what has taken place here - is when the market initially breaks the barrier, U-Turns to test the barrier before U-Turning to give the signal that leads to the breakout;

These alternate forms can be seen in the diagram below taken from the Trading Manual;

DAILY CHART - BREAKOUT SIGNAL

As attractive as this signal has been on the Daily Chart, the size of the Stop Losses required to trade this breakout on the 4 Hour Chart have been too large.

Based on where we would have entered at the close of the Daily Candle, the Stop Loss would have been 332 Pips for the 1st entry option. With the 2nd Bullish Signal, the Stop would have been 169 Pips- both of which are too large for the average Retail Trader.

4 HOUR CHART - ENTRY SIGNALS

So the overall setup and breakout signal on the Daily Chart were strong, but unfortunately can’t be traded based on the Stop Losses required.

In these situations, we simply either wait on another setup on this pair that offers a smaller Stop Loss, or move on to another pair.

The major crosses for the Japanese Yen have rallied sharply in the last few days, with gains of between 500 and 1000 Pips seen for the USD, EURO, GBP and the CHF. Although some of these have started to pullback, the setups on their respective Daily Charts suggest that this could be temporary ahead of further losses for the Japanese Yen.

The USD JPY led the way with a strong breakout from a Range setup on August 20.

The GBP JPY followed with a breakout of its own of over 1000 Pips from a Pennant setup.

In breaking the Resistance of this Pennant, however, the pair exceeded its Monthly Range (see Trading Manual). This means that it is expected to pullback or move sideways for awhile before resuming the uptrend. As long as the bullish signal given after this pause is strong and clear, traders will be able to capture between 100 and 200 Pips.

The EURO JPY also started to break out of its large Pennant with a move of 500 Pips. It did this with a breakout from a small Range at the Support  and has now pulled back to the Resistance of the Pennant. The reason for the pullback has to do with the Breakout Equivalent (B.E.) of this Range being hit which is the target that all breakouts from Consolidations go towards before they pause to either resume the trend or reverse.

If the breakout is going to continue in favour of the EURO, we will have to see a strong U-turn and bullish signal following this test of the Resistance. It is then likely to start a trend that takes us back to the high of 145,67 set on December 27, 2013.

Breakout Equivalent and Monthly Range targets are important technical price points to take into consideration when trading the Daily Chart. They act as strong profit targets for our trades as well as major pullback points for all the Currency Pairs in the Forex. An awareness of these areas greatly enhances your profitability as you anticipate sharp reversals in the market and identify the best exit points for your trades.
