To open long positions on EURUSD you need:
As I noted yesterday, the weak manufacturing activity index in the eurozone countries caused the euro to fall to a support level of 1.0997, which now acts as a resistance. If today the report on business confidence indicates growth, then it is likely that EUR/USD buyers will attempt to return and consolidate above the range of 1.0997, which will lead to the demolition of a number of stop orders and an upward correction of the pair in the resistance area of 1.1034, where I recommend taking profit. In the event of a weak report, which is quite possible, given the current state of the German economy, the bulls only have to rely on a false breakdown in the support area of 1.0960, and recommend opening long positions immediately for a rebound at the low of the month in the area of 1.0927.
To open short positions on EURUSD you need:
Euro sellers will rely on a weak report on confidence in business circles, which will maintain a downward potential in EUR/USD, and a break of support of 1.0960 will only increase the pressure on the pair, which will lead to an update of the low at 1.0927, where I recommend taking profits. If the data turns out to be worse than economists' forecasts, the bulls can take advantage of this and return to a resistance of 1.0997, from where I recommend to open short positions subject to the formation of a false breakdown. Selling the euro for a rebound is best done from a larger resistance of 1.1034.
