Well they updated their platform few months ago, but i didnt wrote about, mainly because i doubt anyone is using marketiva for charting. But in my Marketiva review i wrote their trading platform lacks functionality such as trendlines, support, resistance lines, fibonacci retracement, etc.
So now they have all of mentioned above tools, although i still do not like their interface which is not user friendly, but this is only my opinion, some of you will probably do not agree with this.
If you would like to read my last marketiva review then here is the link. More info for Marketiva platform update ~ forex trading tax return:
Point and Figure Charts Update as at November 17 (updated) ~ forex trade alert season 15
Point and Figure Charts can give us some idea as to where the markets are headed. This method of charting has been used for many years and has been proven to have excellent results over the longer term. I find it handy to have a look at various P&F charts from time to time to keep me current as to where the directions of currencies may be headed. Most of the time on the P&F charts from Stockcharts.com is a target number where the price is expected to travel. Here are some charts from some of the major currencies as at today.
Here is an excellent video primer on Point and Figure Charting

Detecting trend reversal on Forex ~ forex trading tax new zealand
I know that: "How to detect trend reversal?" maybe a thought question with very complex answer but I will try to make my take on it, and keep it very simple and understandable.
So lets get started, obviously when trying to detect trend reversal on Forex you have to use tools that were designed for it. You cant predict it with MACD or RSI because they are trend following indicators. Indicators designed to predict trend reversal are candles. Japanese always traded reversal strategies, European and US traders are almost always trend following traders.
If you dont know how to interpret forex candles then do a search on web and find some info, reading correctly candles is easy and you have to know it. Although keep in mind I do not recommend using them on charts smaller then 4H.
Of course relying only on Japanese techniques can be quiet deceptive so we need something more reliable, we need to have an angel. Trend reversal candles can happen anywhere on the chart, will they always mean end of the trend? No, the really important candles are those which can be found near support and resistance levels. We want to know if this particular level will be broken or not.
Lets pretend we have reverse candle near support, is it time to buy some lots? Again the answer is NO. Take your time, the next candle should be white which is confirmation that trend was reversed, there can also be consolidation period near resistance level, which is usually another sign that trend is reversing, in this case I would put long order at the resistance of consolidation block.
Where to put stop loss? I put it about 100 200 pips below my order depending on situation. I mean if important resistance or support line is broken and price move fast in opposite direction (eg. 100 pips) then there is really no point in holding this position any longer, trend wasnt reversed.
Well, I hope this helps some of you, but if you are going to use this techniques then keep in mind they apply to longer timeframes! I use it with 1D charts, if you will use it with 15M chart you are going to blow yourself out.

Canadian Dollar Update As At January 3 (updated) ~ forex trading academy leeds
Of course the Canadian Dollar is feeling the effects of a failing economy based on someones dream about becoming a petrostate. One interesting thing about petrostates is that in most of them poverty abounds. Another interesting thing is that most petrostates are dictatorships. And Canada was headed that way until the recent election that saw the fanatics removed from power. Canada has a long way to go to recover from ten years of mismanagement, the current oil price has damaged all of Canada.
Here are some recent articles offering various opinions as to the future of the loonie:

Canadian Dollar Update As At January 23 (updated) ~ forex trading courses usa
What Is Happening With The Canadian Dollar?
Background.
The Canadian Dollar has had a nice bounce up in the past couple days and for sure people want that to continue.
Prices for food are skyrocketing and there is little relief in sight as most produce and vegetables are imported at this time of year.
The Loonie has been buoyed by a rise in the price of oil and a bit of weakness in the US Dollar.
Currency wars have been active quietly for many months. As China attempts to rescue its economy and increase production, there have been manipulations of the Yuan.
In addition many other countries are attempting to use interest rates as a tool to stimulate their economies.
Resources world wide are suffering from lack of deman as the worldwide economic slowdown persists.
Some interesting things have been developing in countries against which the Loonie trades, the next couple weeks will be interesting to determine the direction of the Loonie.
The Canadian Dollar is a component of the US Dollar Index, naturally the Loonie is reflected in that index and that index affects the value of the Loonie.
It looks like there is some divergence on these charts of the USDX and it appears to meet pretty stiff resistance to going much higher, which leads me to believe that the US Dollar is about to fall back which will improve the value of the loonie.
Because there are so many economies involved and because each can change their interest rates without warning, it is very difficult to manipulate the value of the Loonie with interest rates alone.
Three Charts to look at:
We have a weekly chart and a daily chart of the US Dollar index.
Both of these charts show some bearish divergence which is good news for the Loonie.
This next chart shows a pretty strong indication that the Loonie is about to rise
This is a Monthly Chart of the USDCAD currency pair and pretty [plain on there is the bearish pattern. What makes this pattern more valid than most is that it covers a period of many years, about 15 years.
Long term, the US Dollar will be falling against the Loonie and relief for Canadians.
In the short term, there will be some volatility and we may see the gains of this week wiped out within the next week.
Video
This video contains a number of charts of currency pairs which involve the Canadian Loonie. There are several pairs involved and different time frames. It appears to me from all of these patterns that the Loonie will soon be appreciating in value.
Here are some articles that contain some interesting views, Many people are becoming experts as to Canadas finances.
