I just made a post about it in the Off-Topics section, but Ukraine is in turmoil. That means European Natural Gas & Oil lines (which run through Western Ukraine from Russia).

If large institutions were taking that Ukraine instability (and it's been rolling in the currency market for at least 2 months) as a possible hit to Euro-zone productivity for the next quarter, it would suggest a flight out of EUR into USD for a while. Or at least a pressure.

Given also the likely increase in Oil pricing, if Ukraine does break down, that also puts lower pressure on Yen, higher pressure on USD & GBP. (I'm not good with the CHF, so I can't really say there)

Thoughts?
 
Ahah.. I love his intro bit for 'fxgears'

Clearly ICT is having fun with the videos he's putting out. That's awesome. :)
 
Something to take note guys,

GBP and DXY's futures trading at a discount while EUR futures trading at a premium.

could be wiser to look for short on the GBP

Hi Kongzz,

Unless I am missing the point on something the Fiber and Cable are trading at a premium, (Mar 14 compared to Jun 14 prices - backwardisation, while the Dollar Index is trading at a lower price (Mar 14 compared to Jun 14 prices).

Just my 2 cents.

well... this is interesting, USDX started to trade at a premium today, EUR also at a premium but GBP at a discount.

Also to add, that 37700 level looks wayy too clean. i think a turtle soup setup is in the cards.

On the GU, that 1.67450 looks enticing given the very staggered price action last week.

On ComDolls, I believe it's the next delivery Month, "Weekly Nearest" setting he favors.

Though if you're Position trading, the outer ones are going to be important to be mindful of.

Hey.. to decipher if something is trading at a premium for example would I look at the column that says "previous" and if the closest month (march) is a lower price than the next month out (june) then it is considered trading at a premium?

Actually according to my notes, it is the exact opposite of my quote. But I am confused because the images posted do not reflect what your post said.
 
I want to take a few minutes to give kudos to those of you that put in the time and exercised patience in the release of this tutorial series. I am confident that you have been presented a wonderful foundation to Price Action Analysis.

The next chapter is to implement it on a weekly basis. This will be the goal of the Advanced Price Action Concepts project.

Talk with you all via video this weekend. Keep your eyes on Twitter @ICT_MHuddleston for more information.

You are champion player ICT, Us Australian followers say thanks, to you and all your time spent creating this series. Teaching what you know, adding IMPORTANT information, giving us the opportunity to take away key points as developing traders, is something that not many known successful traders even contemplate. If we can digest all the advise you have given, and put that against our own pitfalls, and know exactly what you are talking about! Then we might have half a chance in this field. So thanks again Mike! Its really up to us as individuals to live and learn from it, and most importantly, practice and use the exercises first hand.

ICT...First i wanna take minute to thank YOU, for all you do, putting your time, time that you won't get back, to help people you don't even know, I am actually rather new to trading, and in the past 2 months, my trading has changed completely 360 degrees, I can't express it enough, but you are not only changing my life, but everyone else who takes your teaching seriously, your latest series, the sniper field, is so perfectly put together, if i could only say two words to you they would be this, once again....thank you.
 
For those who are tempted to go long EU (because the 9/18EMA D1 still tells so), a warning for the next couple of days/weeks...
Bond prices are also up = lower yields = lower foreign currency prices

I actually find it amazing when you go back multiple years in the charts and find extremely consistent reaction levels.

The USDJPY is my main pair and it's currently just above a multi-decade resistance level.
