Currencies:
As mentioned in last weeks blog post, we are still bullish on the dollar but we were anticipating a deeper pullback. Over the last few days, we have seen the USD pullback. We are looking for this to continue for the near future. BSAPPSFX Advanced group members are aware of the setup we are watching on the dollar. If you have completed the Advanced course and would like to be added to this group, then message one of the team on telegram at the end of the month!
Because of this, we are seeing pullbacks across the board. We have a few pairs on our watchlist, especially the CAD and JPY pairs.

RECAP: Potential Set Ups: AUD/JPY
Our AUDJPY trade hit our take profit perfectly last week, banking over 270 pips! Patience is key in trading, it took a couple of weeks but the setup did eventually play out.
Potential Set Ups: EUR/CAD
We are watching EURCAD for a long setup. We will be targeting 1.49847.
