On Friday, EUR/USD showed another volatility of about 40 pips. The pair generally remained in the same place. Therefore, the technical picture remained unchanged. Currently, the price is in between the Kijun-sen and Senkou Span B lines, simultaneously maintaining both a corrective scenario (ascending) and a trend (descending). In our opinion, the pair has already shown a pronounced correction, so now it may resume its downward movement. However, last week had very few significant events, leaving the market without any fundamental or macroeconomic support. As a result, the movements were quite weak, which implies that there could be no changes. We still don't see any factors that can support the euro's growth, so we don't expect the pair to start an uptrend.
In regards to macroeconomic events, we can only highlight the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index, which had no impact on trading. As for trading signals, the pair generated three signals. The price bounced off the 1.0658-1.0669 area each time but it never increased by 15 pips. Therefore, traders could open a long position, and it could be closed anywhere. There were no losses on the long position because the price never dropped below the level of 1.0669. All the signals simply duplicated each other.
On Friday, a new COT report for October 31st was released. Over the past 12 months, the COT report data has been consistent with what's happening in the market. The net position of large traders (the second indicator) began to rise back in September 2022, roughly at the same time that the euro started to rise. In the first half of 2023, the net position hardly increased, but the euro remained relatively high during this period. Only in the last three months, we have seen a decline in the euro and a drop in the net position, as we anticipated. Currently, the net position of non-commercial traders is still bullish and this trend is likely to lose momentum soon.
We have previously noted that the red and green lines have moved significantly apart from each other, which often precedes the end of a trend. This configuration persisted for over half a year, but ultimately, the lines have started moving closer to each other. Therefore, we still stick to the scenario that the upward trend is over. During the last reporting week, the number of long positions for the "non-commercial" group decreased by 4,700, while the number of short positions fell by 4,800. Consequently, the net position remained mostly unchanged. The number of BUY contracts is still higher than the number of SELL contracts among non-commercial traders by 82,000, but the gap is narrowing. In principle, it is now evident even without COT reports that the euro is set to extend its weakness. However, the corrective phase has not yet ended.
On the 1-hour chart, the pair exhibited four corrective phases, which means that it may have finally ended. The pair started to fall last week, and now it needs to breach the Senkou Span B and Kijun-sen lines to drop to 1.0530. The macroeconomic and fundamental background has been weak, so the pair is moving erratically and also seemingly, in a reluctant way. Nevertheless, we still believe that the dollar will rise.
On November 13, we highlight the following levels for trading: 1.0340-1.0366, 1.0485, 1.0530, 1.0581, 1.0658-1.0669, 1.0768, 1.0806, 1.0868, 1.0935, 1.1043, as well as the Senkou Span B (1.0637) and Kijun-sen (1.0690) lines. The Ichimoku indicator lines can shift during the day, so this should be taken into account when identifying trading signals. There are also auxiliary support and resistance levels, but signals are not formed near them. Signals can be "bounces" and "breakouts" of extreme levels and lines. Don't forget to set a breakeven Stop Loss if the price has moved in the right direction by 15 pips. This will protect against potential losses if the signal turns out to be false.
On Monday, there are no important events lined up in the European Union and the United States. Most likely, we should brace ourselves for another low-volatility day, predominantly marked by sluggish movement.
