To open long positions on EUR / USD pair, you need:
Despite good data on inflation in the eurozone in April of this year, euro buyers are in no hurry to return to the market. Currently, a large support level of 1.1150 has been reached and the report on the American labor market will most likely determine the future direction, which is released in the second half of the day. In the case of a false breakdown at the level of 1.1150, you can count on a larger increase in EUR/USD pair in the area of resistance at 1.1188 and 1.1223, where I recommend taking profits. With a scenario of good data and a further reduction in the pair, you can take a closer look at the rebound from the 1.1115 low.
To open short positions on EUR / USD pair, you need:
The bears got to the support of 1.1150 and its breakdown together with good data on the labor market will lead to a new wave of sales of the European currency with the update of the main weekly target in the area of 1.1115, where I recommend taking profits. In the case of the EUR/USD growth scenario after the release of data, short positions can return on a false breakdown in the area of 1.1188 or on a rebound from a larger maximum of 1.1223.
