Brendan's Trading Ideas

hi BTTA,

I am confused by your recent trade.
I don't see how you could have bought at 0.9170. Are you sure it wasn't 0.9070?
Also, my charts show AUDUSD dropping, not rising, and the current price is below wherever you may have bought from.
could you clarify this one, please.
great thread by the way.

Yes I am sure I had bought AUDUSD at 0.9170.
Please see my chart.

Here are my thoughts on the AUD I just sold it. I think you were on the right track the first time, only you got in too early. I get in too early a lot.

I am an Elliott Wave Guy and unless I am wrong the it will break the previous low at 8700. There is room all the way up to the 9400 before My chart analysis is wrong.

I had heard of many who claim to be elliot wave practioners but I have not heard of many who are successful. Probably elliot wave is very complex to be comprehend by most traders, including myself.

You do not need to know elliot wave in order to know that price needs to go above 9400 to prove that downtrend view is wrong. Just by looking at the chart, we will know that.

After trading for 8 years I had created a proprietory strategy call BL TS System. This is a FX Behavioural Model. I had been using this strategy to trade for the past 2 years and I have been successful. This is the strategy that I have been teaching my students.

Currently AUDUSD is at 0.9057, my long AUDUSD trade is sitting on 102 pips profit now.:clap:

Good question!

We are forex educators. We teach our proprietory strategy to our students. We also provide live trade signals to our students. If we provide live trade signals here, we will get complains from our students. So we can only post slightly late signals.

If you need evidence to show that we really send out live signal to our students, send me an email, I will forward my signal email to you. The email is time-stamped.
 
Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing.

There are 3 criteria to determine which currencies to buy:
a) The currency must have relatively higher interest rate than other currencies. Naturally investors want to invest in currencies for their yield.
b) The nation must have budget surplus. Budget surplus means that the nation is earning more than it spends.
c) GDP growth must be healthy and positive. Healthy GDP growth increases confidence to investment community and hence higher probability of capital appreciating.

After determine which currency to buy, we will check out the trend of the currency. The saying that “the trend is your friend” is always true. We will use our trend strategy to determine the medium term trend of the currency pair. It is easy to ride with the trend rather than the go against the trend. Move onto next step if trend shows uptrend.

Next we need to find out the behaviour of the currency pair that we want to trade. After finding out the past behaviour of the currency pair, we can use this information to generate buy / sell signals. We will proceed to next step when the signals show buy.

We will always buy near a support level. If the current price is far from support level, we will wait for better entry level.

Finally we will determine where is our stop loss and target loss. Make sure that we do not risk more than 2% of our capital for each trade. All forecasts are a matter of probabilities, not certainties. Hence all trading decision must come with managing losses. By risking only 2% or less for each trade is our way of managing losses.

This is how we trade and we have been doing well in our trading.
