Trading Opportunity
AUD/USD
On the 4 hours chart, after a clear downtrend, the pair once tried to broke above the trend line but failed, as it was a false break.
Now there is another attempt, what can we do from here?
On the 1 hour chart we can see that after a double wave down (part of the false break) a double wave up is created.
We marked a down trend line, when (and if) the pair will closed above it, it would be a signal to buy CALL options.
