To open long positions on EUR / USD, you need:
Market volatility will gradually decrease before the Christmas holidays. For buyers, it is best to look at the breakdown of the level of 1.1402, which can lead to a larger upward correction to the area of maximum 1.1438, where I recommend fixing the profits. The formation of a false breakdown in the 1.1377 area will also retain hope among buyers for the growth of the euro in the first half of the day. Otherwise, it is best to open long positions to rebound from the support of 1.1350.
To open short positions on EUR / USD, you need:
Bears will try to form a false breakdown in the resistance area of 1.1402, which will resume the downward movement in the euro and lead to a breakthrough of a minimum of 1.1377, below which levels of 1.1350 and 1.1324 open, where I recommend fixing the profits. If EUR / USD rises above the resistance level of 1.1402, it's best to take a closer look at short positions on the rebound from 1.1438.
