Analysis of transactions and trading tips on EUR/USD
No price tests occurred in the morning as euro reacted sluggishly to Germany's producer price data. In the afternoon, data on home sales in the US secondary market will not affect the pair's direction, but the reports on consumer sentiment and inflation expectations from the University of Michigan can affect the price movement. A spike in inflation will lead to euro plummeting to the weekly low, while risk appetite will surge if expectations decrease.
For long positions:
Buy when euro hits 1.0895 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0925. Growth will occur amid a sharp decrease in inflation expectations in 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 1.0874, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area, as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0895 and 1.0925.
For short positions:
Sell when euro reaches 1.0874 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0845. Pressure will increase in the absence of bullish activity around the daily high and strong inflation data.
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 1.0895, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.0874 and 1.0845.
What's on the chart:

Thick green line - estimated price where you can set Take-Profit (TP) or manually fix profits, as further growth above this level is unlikely.
Thin red line - entry price at which you can sell EUR/USD
Thick red line - estimated price where you can set Take-Profit (TP) or manually fix profits, as further decline below this level is unlikely.
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.
