Loonie Trapped in a Wedge

日本語の原稿はこちら

And the pick of the day is loonie, forex geek name for Mr. Canadian dollar as Ms. USA leads him on the forex dance floor. The pair has been completing a pullback from an uptrend in place since September 2013, and now trapped in a falling wedge right around the 38% Fibonacci level. At the same time the pair is moving below the Ichimoku cloud with the RSI below the neutrality area. So we are basically waiting for a fierce signal as to which direction the pair would want to move next. As we have covered in our education program, the falling wedge can mostly be used as a continuation pattern during an uptrend so our targets for this scenario above 1.07 would be 1.105 and 1.128. Alternative scenario below 1.07 would call for a downward dance move towards 1.044 and 1.0175.
