Overview:
It should be noted that the market was not stable, and the trend was not clear (it was in a tight sideways range), amid the latest events, the price is still trapped between 1.5750 and 1.5400, so it is wise to be careful in this area. Therefore, the first step is to wait for a period of tight sideways range market before breakouts. Then, it is probable that the market will show the signs of a bullish trend. In other words, it will be a good to buy above 1.5400 (Support 3: 1.5469) with the first target of 1.55, and it'll climb towards 1.56, then to 1.5675. However, if the pair does not manage to break through 1.5750, the market will indicate a bearish opportunity below 1.5750 and the level will act as a strong resistance, for that it will be good to sell below 1.5750 with the first target of 1.56, and it will call for downtrend in order to continue bearish trend towards 1.555.

Definition (s):
Range I – A long-term mean reversion strategy that looks to go against strong divergence from the pair’s average value. It will typically hold trades for an extended period of time and is one of the slower moving trading strategies.
Range II– Like Breakout 2, uses sentiment as a filter for its trades. It will use a simple oscillator range trading strategy but only take the trading signals if SSI is not at extremes. It is fairly short-term in nature and will tend to trade very little during times of strong trending moves. It is likewise one of the most volatility-sensitive trading systems and will tend to do poorly during times of sharp currency moves.
Observation (s):
Please check out the market volatility before investing, because the sight price may have already been reached and scenarios become invalidate.
