XAGUSD ____ SELECTING THE BEST PAIRS TO TRADE
Hello Traders,
Using XAGUSD (Silver) as a case study, I will explain why you need to select the best possible pair to trade. The reason why this is so is because almost all the FX pairs are correlated one way or the other, hence you must always choose the one with the best narrative and the best setup.
When I say narrative, I mean the reason why you expect a particular move in the price i.e. a rally or drop in price.
Now using XAGUSD, the dollar index just entered a weekly order block (you can look at it on your chart) which could likely mean a short-term bearish move. With this knowledge, you now know that the dollar is likely to be the weaker currency among all dollar pairs. The next thing you want to do is scan all dollar pairs, looking for the one that is well positioned to show strength against the dollar to take a trade.
The reason why I picked XAGUSD, is because price entered a weekly demand-side FVG which should cause a rally in price. We also have another weekly FVG above the current price that is likely to be filled. Next, you can notice we have buy-side liquidity just below the weekly FVG. This gives price more reasons to rally.
Asides XAGUSD, other well-structured pairs are GBPUSD, USDCHF & EURUSD.
Always put your best foot forward.
Follow me for more updates, learnings and trade ideas.
Below is my previous analysis on XAGUSD at the start of the week. I expected price to go into the FVG first before the dump to my target, however, price went to my target first so I'm guessing it's time to mitigate the buy=side weekly FVG.
