Daily TA & Trade Ideas – 17th Feb 2021
AUDUSD longs from our buying opportunity 7715/05 work as we hit 7760/65 then 7780/85 but we warned that the January high at 7810/20 was key resistance & profit should be taken. We topped just 5 pips below.
We wrote: It is always risky to sell in to shorts in a strong bull trend. However in overbought conditions if we hold the January high we have a potential double top sell signal. If you want on bet on this pattern forming (it is high risk) the downside support is 7755/45, perhaps as far as a buying opportunity at 7720/10.
If you managed to short we tumbled to just 8 pips above our buying opportunity.
NZDUSD remains stuck in a 5 week sideways channel. Shorts at first resistance at 7250/60 this worked perfectly on the slide to minor support at 7210/7190.
