Just thinking that the price is to emerge within the upward consolidation range, as drawn.
Recommended entry at this point (with some risk) and less risky ones at 5.85 and 5.75 (it is possible that the price will not drop there).
Movements drawn within the range for the next 2-3 months, are only here to highlight key areas, and the consolidation range tested three times before.
and there is a very low probability that the 4 of them will be correct (if it happens to be true, never enter in shorting direction, a breakout is possible anytime)
but what is really recommended is to go long USDTRY for the long term and target the fibonacci expansion around 8.3 initially and 9.7 as a last TP.
(9.7 may coincide with a trend line on the logarithmic scale linking Aug 13 top to the ascending line from Feb-Sep 2015)
Fundamentally:
- The country is entering a recession, negative GDP growth, and rising unemployment.
- Turkey is geopolitically entangled, preparing an operation against kurds to the south, which was promised for long time and did not happen. And very disturbed in shifting its alliances away from the west towards Russia and Iran.
- As highlighted on the chart, a controversial deal for russian S-400 missiles may imply some sanctions too.
And also, watch out for Trump's twitter, if he makes any tweet on turkey :)
Finally these trades are recommended for the long term, assess your losses and overnight funding rates separately.
