To open long positions on EURUSD you need:
Good US data was ignored by the market. At the moment, euro buyers ran into a new resistance level of 1.1264, a breakthrough of which will maintain an upward momentum, which will lead to a test of new highs in the area of 1.1290 and 1.1317, where I recommend taking profits. In case of a downward correction, one can also count on long positions in the support area of 1.1225, in the event of a false breakdown, as was the case yesterday, or on a rebound from a low of 1.1200.
To open short positions on EURUSD you need:
The downward trend is not yet broken. Sellers need to form a false breakdown in the area of a resistance of 1.1264, which will be the first signal to open short positions in euros in order to return to the support of 1.1225. However, the main task will be a breakthrough and consolidation below the level of 1.1225, which will lead to a larger movement of the euro down to the lows of 1.1200 and 1.1175, where I recommend taking profits. If the growth scenario is higher than 1.1264, short positions can be opened for a rebound from a high of 1.1290 and 1.1317.
