Swing Trader’s Insight-Today’s Canadian Dollar Trade

by Scott Hoffman on January 14, 2009

I tried selling the Canadian dollar yesterday.  MACD showed an incipient bearish crossover, and I was looking for followthrough selling when the red trendline was broken.  Yesterday’s selloff ran out of gas, and reversed back up, stopping me out for a small loss.  With the bearish MACD crossover in place, I was still looking for a short sale today.  The initial sale point was at yesterday’s low of 8096, but I didn’t have an order working to sell there.  It quickly dropped down to make a new intraday low at 8077, and I placed the order to sell at 8075, on a break to a new low.  I got stopped in, and they dropped to a new low at 8032.  The short term pattern turned sideways, and I lowered the stop to lock in a profit.  Following the release of the DOE crude inventory report it appeared that many physical commodities were attempting to bottom, so I covered at 8040.  I will look for another opportunity to short this market-maybe on a rebound back toward 8100.
