EURUSD
EURUSD Trading Idea EUR/USD dipped 0.2% on Tuesday, marking its third straight decline as it approaches the key 1.0500 level. The Euro’s recent bullish momentum is fading, with traders shifting to a cautious stance ahead of two major events:
US CPI Data (Wednesday): A pivotal release ahead of the Fed's final 2024 meeting. Inflation is expected to tick up to 2.7% YoY (from 2.6%), with core CPI holding steady at 3.3%. Any signs of stalled progress could dash hopes for a third consecutive rate cut on December 18, fueling USD volatility.
ECB Rate Decision (Thursday): The ECB is widely anticipated to deliver another quarter-point rate cut. Forecasts suggest the Main Refinancing Operations Rate will be trimmed to 3.15% (from 3.4%), and the Deposit Facility Rate is expected to drop to 3.0% (from 3.25%).
EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Entry Opportunity with SMC and Fibonacci
Using Smart Money Concepts (SMC) and Fibonacci retracement, the key zone between the 0.71 and 0.79 Fibonacci levels is shaping up as a critical area of interest. Following the creation of a fair value gap at the last high, the price is now testing the 50% Fibonacci level, setting the stage for a potential trade setup.
Trade Setup:
Entry Point: 1.05520 (aligned with the 0.75 Fibonacci level)
Stop Loss: 1.05697 (just above the 0.79 Fibonacci level for added risk protection)
Take Profit: 1.04990 (targeting below the fair value gap for optimal risk-to-reward)
Risk/Reward Insights:
This setup offers a Risk/Reward Ratio of 2.98. By risking 17.7 pips to gain 53 pips, you're maximizing reward relative to risk.

#EURUSD - 11122024We caught the whole EURUSD move as per algo level path given yesterday; a move higher to re-test strong level at 1.0564 for a short down to 1.0500 level and a long to 1.0534, all played out to perfection.
I said that 1.0500 is a potential low and market bounced from it. Is the lows in? To be honest, based on the current price action on daily, it is not so easy to decipher. It does not look like a bottoming candle.
Thus IMO, EURUSD could make another move down to make a new low, but that get bought up to possibly form a reversal candle on daily to be called a bottom. Looking for a rejection off 1.0556 for a move down to 1.0476 for a long.
EURUSD: Standard Channel Up targeting above the 4H MA200.EURUSD may have turned bearish today on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 41.238, MACD = -0.005, ADX = 33.591) but 4H remains neutral as the pullback is the technical bearish wave of the Channel Up you see on the chart. The two bullish waves we've had so far have been exactly the same at +1.65% with the 4H RSI S1 Zone providing the most accurate buy entries. Consequently, this is now the best level to go long and target a crossing over the 4H MA200 on another +1.65% bullish wave (TP = 1.06675).

Euro can rebound up to 1.0700 level, exiting from pennantHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Euro. Looking at the chart, we can see how the price some days ago started to decline inside the downward pennant, where it at once rebounded from the resistance line and fell to the 1.0700 level, which coincided with the seller zone. Then EUR tried to grow, but failed and in a short time declined below the 1.0700 level, breaking it. Next, the price continued to decline and later almost reached the support level, after which turned around and some time traded a little higher at this level, but didn't fall to it. Later, the rice dropped below the 1.0485 level, which coincided with the buyer zone, breaking it and reaching the support line of the downward pennant, after which started to grow and made a gap. After this movement, the Euro broke the 1.0485 support level one more time and made a retest. Next, it little grew, after which made a correction to the support level and then rose to the resistance line of the pennant. But a not long time ago, the price fell to the support line and now it trying to grow. For this case, I think that the price can correct to the support line and then rebound up to 1.0700 resistance level, thereby exiting from the pennant pattern.

EURUSD BUY - Rebound Blueprint Price is respecting the FVG zone (1.0528), signaling a bullish reversal. Watching closely for a surge toward 1.0620 and potentially 1.0645.
The EUR/USD chart shows a potential reversal setup forming around a Fair Value Gap (FVG) at the 1.0528 level. Price has retraced into this FVG, aligning with a high-probability demand zone.
The 1.0530 area, acting as a significant structural support, has shown strong rejections, indicating buying interest.
The FVG aligns with previous inefficiencies in the price, providing a magnet for liquidity before the market resumes its upward trend.
The initial target at 1.0620, where minor resistance could emerge.
A decisive break below 1.0520 would invalidate this setup, suggesting further downside potential.
EURUSD Bulls Will Take Charge?EUR/USD bounces off a strong demand zone around 1.0530. With bullish structure building, we could see a rally towards 1.0650.
A key support zone at 1.0499–1.0530 has provided a strong foundation for a bullish reversal.
The rejection candle and subsequent bullish candles suggest that buyers are stepping in aggressively at this level.
Price is likely to target 1.0649 in the coming sessions, aligning with previous highs and liquidity areas.
Stay patient and follow the structure.
#EurusdAbove this critical EUR/USD level, the probability of a bullish breakout significantly increases. However, markets can be unpredictable, and external factors can always influence price movements. While the technical indicators may align in favor of a long position, it's essential to conduct thorough analysis and manage your trades wisely. Proceed with caution, and remember that every trade carries inherent risks—trade responsibly!

#EURUSDEUR/USD Update, The pair continues its upward trajectory, driven by improving Eurozone sentiment and USD softness. Bulls are eyeing a key breakout above , potentially targeting . Support holds firm near , offering a solid risk-reward setup. Keep an eye on macro data for further momentum. #EURUSD #ForexAnalysis #Trading
#EURUSD - 10122024I called for a move lower for EURUSD yesterday off the PZ. EURUSD came down, rallied higher, nicely to PZ and sold back down to close near the lows for a good 45pips or so.
I will not say that yesterday's price action is bearish. IMO, the thesis which I gave yesterday is still valid, that is, EURUSD is coming down into support. But I am expecting buyers to come in and that could move EURUSD higher. That is a possibility thus while near term price action is bearish, it could find support at one of the levels and move higher.
But for now, I am looking at the PZ to hold for a move lower, with 1.05/512 as the price target, but look out for a possible strong pullback/reversal from this zone.
Gold Analysis - December 2024Gold maintains its bullish momentum, trading above $2,660 per ounce due to optimism surrounding new economic stimulus from China and a weakening US Dollar, which enhance the appeal of the precious metal. During American trading hours, spot gold reached an intraday high of $2,667.31, reflecting sustained demand after the People’s Bank of China (PBoC) resumed gold purchases following a six-month hiatus. This aligns with a macroeconomic context that favors safe-haven assets. News of Chinese stimulus has improved sentiment for gold, with China, being a significant consumer and investor, showing clear support for prices through central bank purchases. Meanwhile, the US Dollar is weakening ahead of key central bank announcements and economic data releases, making gold more attractive to investors holding other currencies. Attention is focused on the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data due on Wednesday, which could influence expectations for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. A higher-than-expected CPI could pressure gold, while weaker data may further support its bullish trend. Decisions from various central banks, including the Federal Reserve, ECB, and BoE, may shape market sentiment, with dovish signals potentially further boosting gold. Wall Street opened lower, with major indices in the red, while government bond yields ticked slightly higher, creating a mixed environment that supports safe-haven flows into gold.

EURUSD: the ECB week aheadThe Non-farm Payrolls for November were the main macro indicator that the market was waiting for during the previous week. The NFP of 227K in November was slightly above the market expectations of 200K. At the same time, the unemployment rate in November increased a bit to 4,2%, from the previous 4,1%. Average hourly earnings were higher by 0,4% for the month, which brings the indicator up by 4% for the year. As for other US macro data published during the week, the ISM Manufacturing reached the level of 48,4 in November, modestly above market estimate of 47,5. The ISM Services PMI in November reached the level of 52,1 which was lower from market estimate of 55,5. Michigan Consumer Sentiment preliminary for December is standing at 74,0 a bit higher from the market expectation of 72,5. Inflation expectation for the next five years has a bit decreased to the level of 3,1%, from 3,2% posted during the previous month.
The Manufacturing industry in Germany continues to slow down. As per posted HCOB Manufacturing PMI final for November, the index in Germany reached the level of 43, which was below market estimate of 43,2. The same index reached 46 in the Euro Zone a bit better from forecasted 45,2. At the same time, the services sector in Germany is doing better from manufacturing, as HCOB Services PMI final for November reached 51,6 a bit better from estimated 49,4. The same index for the Euro Zone was also standing at the level of 51,6. The Producers Price Index in the Euro Zone dropped by -0,6% in October, bringing the total drop to -3,4% for the year. The Retail Sales in the Euro Zone were higher by 0,5% in October, bringing the indicator up by 2,9% for the year. The Industrial Production in Germany dropped by -2,5% in October for the month, which was significantly below market expectations of +2,5%.
Despite the relatively solid jobs data, the market is increasing odds that the Fed will further cut interest rates at their December meeting. The USD weakened a bit during the previous week, from the level of 1,048 up to the level of 1,062. The currency pair ended the week at the level of 1,056. The RSI started its path toward the upside, however at the level of 45, there is no clear sign that the market is currently eyeing the overbought market side. The moving average of 50 days continued its divergence from the MA200, confirming the cross occurred two weeks ago.
The week ahead will be the ECB week. The Europeans will decide on the future course of reference interest rates. Considering decreasing inflation, but also weakening of the EuroZone economy, the market is expecting to see a further 25 bps cut. On the other hand, the US market will digest the latest NFP and inflation data and position accordingly for the FOMC meeting, scheduled for December 17-18th. As per current charts, there is some probability for resistance line at 1,07 to be tested, but first the 1,06 level should be clearly breached. At the same time, charts are also showing some probability that 1,05 support could be tested for one more time.
Important news to watch during the week ahead are:
EUR: Inflation rate in Germany final for November, ECB Interest Rate Decision (expectations: 3%), ECB Press conference after the ECB meeting, ECB Economic Projections, Balance of Trade in Germany for October, Industrial Production in the EuroZone, HCOB Manufacturing PMI flash for December in Germany and the Euro Zone
USD: Inflation rate in November, Producers Price Index in November
EURUSD Down movement after test of the resistance crossingFollowing a significant bearish decline in autumn, EUR/USD has entered a consolidation phase, moving sideways. This behavior often occurs after substantial market movements. If the price retests the channel boundary and rebounds, it may indicate a continuation of the bearish trend from the resistance zone and channel border. The target for this movement is the support zone around 1.04300
EUR/USD: Are We Crashing Through Parity?Well, well, well, EUR/USD, you sly dog. Just when we thought the pair might catch a break, it doubles down on its favorite hobby—going DOWN. 📉 Since late September, this thing has been in a nosedive so steep it makes roller coasters look tame. 🎢
And now? It’s giving us not one but TWO glorious bearish flags. That’s the market’s way of saying, “Hold my beer, I’ve got more downside to cover.” 🍺 So, buckle up as we break down what’s happening with EUR/USD, why it’s acting like a currency in free fall, and just how low it might go. Spoiler alert: Parity might not be far enough. 😏
The Downtrend Diaries: EUR/USD’s Love Affair with Lows
Okay, let’s rewind to late September. What happened? Oh, just EUR/USD deciding it was time to swap its bull costume for a full-blown bear suit. 🐻 We’re talking lower highs, lower lows, and every technical analyst’s favorite phrase: "the trend is your friend" (until it’s not, of course).
This week? The pair is snuggled nicely inside its second bearish flag, like a bear hibernating before its next big move. For those of you wondering, a bearish flag is when the market pauses, catches its breath, and says, “Alright, time to drop some more.” And let me tell you, these flags aren’t subtle. They’re practically screaming, “Hey, the trend’s still bearish—don’t get any ideas!”
Why So Bearish? Let’s Blame the Usual Suspects
The Almighty Dollar Flexing Again 💪
The USD is out here reminding everyone why it’s called the safe-haven king. Interest rates? Still high. Risk-off sentiment? Very much alive. Meanwhile, the euro’s like that one kid who forgot to study for the test—it’s just not prepared to fight back. 🤷♂️
Eurozone: Where’s the Mojo?
Between slowing growth, sticky inflation, and the French government imploding (because why not?), the euro is struggling to convince anyone it’s worth a rally. Even the promise of €500 billion in defense spending couldn’t lift its spirits for long. If fiscal spending can’t save the day, what can?
Bearish Flags Don’t Lie 🚩
These flags are the cherry on top of the downtrend sundae. First, we had one around 1.0650, which broke lower like clockwork. Now we’re staring down another flag that’s coiled tighter than my jeans after Thanksgiving dinner. Once this breaks, well... let’s just say the floor is looking mighty inviting.
How Low Can It Go? Let’s Talk Targets 🔭
Now, if this flag plays out like the textbook says, EUR/USD could easily revisit 1.0450. And if that level doesn’t hold? Get ready to dust off those parity memes. Yes, I’m talking 1.0000, the big, scary, psychological level where everyone suddenly remembers how to panic. 😱
But hey, let’s not stop there. The lower boundary of the larger downtrend is lurking below 0.9900, and if the bears get really hungry, that’s where they’ll feast. 🍴
The Sarcastic Silver Lining: What Would It Take to Flip Bullish?
Oh, you want bullish scenarios? That’s cute. 😏 Here’s what would need to happen:
The euro suddenly gets a personality transplant and decides it’s worth something.
The USD forgets it’s the global reserve currency and takes a nap.
A miracle. Like, divine intervention-level miracle.
But seriously, unless EUR/USD breaks above 1.0600 with conviction (and by conviction, I mean a rally that doesn’t immediately fall apart), the bears are still in charge.
Final Thoughts: Trade Smart or Get Wrecked 💀
Look, the writing’s on the wall. EUR/USD is in a downtrend, the flags are flapping, and the bears are sharpening their claws. This isn’t the time to play hero and try to catch a bottom. Instead, let the trend do its thing, wait for the flag to break, and ride the wave lower. 🌊
And hey, if it does hit parity, at least we’ll have something to talk about at the next market meltdown party. 🎉 Until then, keep those stop-losses tight, and don’t forget: the trend might be your friend, but it’s also got a dark sense of humor.
Catch you next time, traders. George out. 🎤
#EURUSD 4HEURUSD 4-Hour Analysis
The EURUSD pair is forming a head and shoulders pattern on the 4-hour chart, which is typically a bearish reversal signal. However, in this case, the price action suggests a potential invalidation of the pattern, favoring a bullish breakout scenario. If the neckline resistance is broken, it could provide a buy opportunity.
Technical Outlook:
Pattern: Head and Shoulders (Potential Breakout)
Forecast: Bullish (Buy Opportunity)
Entry Strategy: Enter a buy position upon a confirmed breakout above the neckline resistance with strong bullish momentum.
Traders should monitor for bullish confirmation such as a breakout candlestick with increased volume or indicators like MACD signaling upward momentum. Proper risk management is crucial, with stop-loss orders placed below the neckline and profit targets set at the next resistance levels.
EURUSD Crucial test on the 4H MA200. Bullish if broken.The EURUSD pair has been trading within a Bearish Megaphone since the September 30 High, which is technically the Bearish Leg of the long-term Channel Down pattern, which we saw on our previous analysis.
Having found support on the 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), the pair appears to be attempting another test on the 4H MA200 (orange trend-line), which rejected the last Lower High (November 05) and has been intact since October 01, making it practically the basic long-term Resistance.
As a result, if the 4H MA200 breaks, the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the Bearish Megaphone should follow too, which will cause a technical medium-term break-out. Our Target is the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level at 1.08765.
You may use the Higher Lows trend-line as an additional tool to determine if the break-out will be successful as last time (November 05) the failed to hold and caused the new Bearish Low of the Megaphone. Similar analogy with the 4H RSI Higher Lows trend-line.
