In my morning forecast, I highlighted the level of 1.0885 and recommended making decisions on market entry based on it. Let's look at the 5-minute chart and analyze what happened there. The pair experienced a decline, but due to the low volatility that we have become accustomed to seeing in the first half of the day lately, a false breakout did not occur. The technical picture for the second half of the day remained unchanged.
To open long positions on EUR/USD, the following is required:
The released PMI data for the Eurozone countries showed a slight recovery but remained below the 50-point level, indicating a contraction in activity. The euro reacted modestly. Although it held the daily minimum after the data – that's good. Since I did not reconsider the technical picture for the second half of the day, I plan to act according to the morning scenario. We have similar data from the United States ahead, and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is also speaking. If he confirms a soft approach to future policy, we can expect a recovery in the euro and an upward correction at the end of the week. If the position remains unchanged, the pressure on the euro will increase. For this reason, I left the purchases until a proper test of support at 1.0885, which we did not do in the first half of the day. Only a false breakout formation will provide an entry point for long positions with the expectation of EUR/USD growth and a test of the new resistance at 1.0917 formed at the end of yesterday. Its breakout and updating from top to bottom will depend on Powell's statements, signaling a buy and a chance to refresh to 1.0947, where the moving averages supporting the sellers are located. The ultimate target will be the area of 1.0979, where I will make profits. With a further decline in EUR/USD and no activity at 1.0885 in the second half of the day, trading will move within the framework of a new descending channel, creating even more problems for buyers. In this case, I will enter the market only after forming a false breakout around 1.0857. I will open long positions immediately on the rebound from 1.0827, with a target of an ascending correction within the day by 30-35 points.
To open short positions on EUR/USD, the following is required:
Sellers remain in the market, but there are not enough fundamental reasons for increasing short positions in the current bullish market to continue the decline in the euro. Only the formation of a false breakout at 1.0917 after strong US data will give an excellent sell signal in anticipation of building a new bearish market. The nearest target is support at 1.0885. Only after breaking and consolidating below this range and a bottom-up retest do I expect to receive another sell signal with an exit to 1.0857. The ultimate target will be a minimum of 1.0827, where I will take profits. In the event of an upward movement in EUR/USD during the American session against the backdrop of Powell's soft statements, despite yesterday's inflation and the absence of bears at 1.0917, buyers will try to stop the correction and restore balance to the market. This will open the way for buyers to a maximum of 1.0947. You can sell there, but only after an unsuccessful consolidation. I will open short positions immediately on the rebound from 1.0979, with a target of a descending correction by 30-35 points.
In the COT report (Commitment of Traders) for November 21, there was an increase in long positions and another significant reduction in shorts. Statements by representatives of the European Central Bank and their commitment to high-interest rates led to new purchases of the euro last week, as did PMI activity data, which showed a slight recovery in some Eurozone countries, leaving a chance to avoid a recession in the fourth quarter of this year. The publication of the minutes of the November meeting of the US Federal Reserve slightly cooled risk asset buyers but did not significantly affect the development of the bullish trend. Many important fundamental inflation and consumer confidence statistics will be released soon, undoubtedly affecting market direction. The COT report indicates that long non-commercial positions increased by 9,905 to 231,095, while short non-commercial positions decreased by 10,842 to 101,441. As a result, the spread between long and short positions increased by 1,170. The closing price rose and amounted to 1.0927 against 1.0902.Indicator Signals:
