Weekend comment plus AUDUSD Sentiment trade 24/02/21

Hello Traders,Weekend thoughts on this weeks action:Crazy week full of ups and downs.... !!

AUDUSD Chart/Sentiment Analysis for the 8th Feb 2021

This is my analysis of the AUDUSD pair using SentiFX tools to understand how retail is currently positioned and how we may exploit this positioning to effectively take the other side of the 90%+ losing retail traders and bank some pips in the process. Starting with the Daily Chart you will see that the pair is in a very strong uptrend making consistent higher highs whilst retail have been trapped and adding to shorts for the whole ride up. Note that the 50 and 100 DMA's are in a very wide bullish formation indicating a persistent trend.Recently the pair has taken [...]
