Analysis of transactions and trading tips on EUR/USD
Further decline became limited because the test of 1.0947 coincided with the sharp downward movement of the MACD line from zero. Nevertheless, the empty macroeconomic calendar maintained pressure on the pair, and now all attention will be focused on the upcoming report on home sales in the US secondary market. The Fed's minutes of the meeting also lie ahead, which could lead to a more active surge in volatility. If the minutes contain direct indications of another interest rate hike, the upward potential may come to an end.
For long positions:
Buy when euro hits 1.0965 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.1011. Strong growth will occur amid a dovish Fed protocol.
When buying, ensure that the MACD line lies above zero or rises from it. Euro can also be bought after two consecutive price tests of 1.0941, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area, as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0965 and 1.1011.
For short positions:
Sell when euro reaches 1.0941 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0900. Pressure will increase in the case of another unsuccessful attempt to break the daily high.
When selling, make sure that the MACD line lies below zero or drops down from it. Euro can also be sold after two consecutive price tests of 1.0965, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0941 and 1.0900.

MACD line- it is important to be guided by overbought and oversold areas when entering the market
Important: Novice traders need to be very careful when making decisions about entering the market. Before the release of important reports, it is best to stay out of the market to avoid being caught in sharp fluctuations in the rate. If you decide to trade during the release of news, then always place stop orders to minimize losses. Without placing stop orders, you can very quickly lose your entire deposit, especially if you do not use money management and trade large volumes.
And remember that for successful trading, you need to have a clear trading plan. Spontaneous trading decision based on the current market situation is an inherently losing strategy for an intraday trader.
