To open long positions on EUR / USD pair, you need:
A good report on retail sales in Germany and the Eurozone supported the European currency in the first half of the day, which led to consolidation above 1.1435. While trading is conducted over this range, you can count on continued growth with an update of a maximum of 1.1475, where I recommend taking profits. The main goal for the first half of the week is to update the maximum of 1.1515. If the trade moves under the level of 1.1435, it is possible to open long positions immediately to the rebound from the large support of 1.1405.
To open short positions on EUR / USD pair, you need:
The afternoon bears need to go back below the support level of 1.1435 in the morning, which will lead to profit taking in long positions and EUR / USD decline to the support area of 1.1405, where I recommend taking profits. In the event of weak fundamental statistics on the American economy, it is best to consider selling the euro to rebound from a major resistance 1.1475.
