To open long positions on EURUSD you need:
Angela Merkel left, and the euro rose. An interesting twist, of course. In order to continue the upward trend, a breakdown and consolidation above the resistance of 1.1444 is required, which will lead to a larger upward trend with the update of the highs of 1.1471 and 1.1498, where I recommend to lock in the profit. In case of a decrease in the EUR/USD during the first half of the day, long positions can be returned on a false breakdown in the area of 1.1414 or on a rebound from a bigger low of 1.1388. Good industrial production data in Italy can help buyers.
To open short positions on EURUSD you need:
The bears need to stay below the resistance of 1.1444, and the formation of a false breakout on it will be a good signal to open short positions in order to decline to the intermediate support area of 1.1414, the first test of which will necessarily lead to a rebound in the euro. It is best to sell from this level at a repeated decline with the main goal of a breakdown and a decline in the area of a low of 1.1388, where I recommend taking profits. If the EUR/USD rises further along the trend above the resistance of 1.1444, you can take a closer look at short positions at a rebound from the highs of 1.1471 and 1.1498.
