Analysis of transactions and trading tips on EUR/USD
Further decline became limited because the test of 1.0937 occurred at a time when the MACD line fell sharply from zero. No other market signal appeared for the rest of the day, primarily due to the empty macroeconomic calendar and low trading volatility.
Further price movement depends on the upcoming US labor market reports, in which a surge in initial jobless claims will likely exert pressure on dollar, leading to a rise in the pair. A downward revision of Q3 GDP will also result in a decrease in dollar, while data on the Philadelphia Fed's manufacturing index will not change the balance of power in the market.
For long positions:
Buy when euro hits 1.0957 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0996. Growth will occur after very weak data from the US.
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 1.0937, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area, as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0957 and 1.0996.
For short positions:
Sell when euro reaches 1.0937 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0910. Pressure will increase in the case of very strong data from the US and lack of bullish activity around 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 1.0957, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0945 and 1.0910.

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.
