Failure Patterns Day Trading Strategy

===============================================================
Everyone loves transparency, My trading statements are available

===============================================================

We were expecting a great day today and that is exactly what
we got!
  Our day trading strategy this
morning used the 830am EST jobless claims news along with key levels of support
and resistance on the dollar index, advanced price-structures on crude oil and
euro currency futures to help us earn over 100 ticks of profit with only 3
trades taken.

Live Trades Called Today in the Room


We began this morning with news that started the day off
with some volume and volatility when jobless claims came out much lower than
expected,
and we began looking for our first trade of the morning shortly
afterwards.  The dollar index was trading
just above a major support level (we call them turning points) and when the
price on the dollar index started rising off support we had the perfect set-up
for selling on crude oil.

Dollar Index Trading Strategy

Our day trading strategy for crude oil was simple this
morning, using the PHOD and PLOD
and a sideways trading range.  We did our homework this morning knowing that
we had additional resistance above us around 107.00 so we were NOT looking to
buy the breakout, we excepted a fake-out breakout so we were looking to sell
the failure, which we did for 45 ticks of profit to start the day with a bang!

Crude Oil Day Trading Strategy

Our day trading strategy on the euro was also very simple,
and was very similar to the strategy we used on Wednesday selling the highs of
the price wedge
.  We watched as the euro
broke above 1.3325 and then failed coming right back down, we sold short when
the 21-Range wave pattern failed.  The sellers
didn’t last long though, only giving us 50% of the move off the highs we were
expecting, so we quickly took the wave LONG on the 34 range chart to make some
more easy cash when the dollar index fell off its resistance overhead.
