Riding 🏇 Manufacturing Data 🎯 2%+ Risking --> [ .30% ]Last Week the Weekly Candle closed Bearish but with no wick Last week the Candle closed below Weekly S/R Level However, the candle closed in between our two Daily Level's Manufacturing Data Was Expected to be negative for the USD Red Folder News and in theory good for EUR Strength Price had been going up on EU since the new Weekly Candle opening yesterday. From Experience I was anticipating an early in the week push up away from our previously mentioned Level's. The Red folder news was a catalyst for a continuation of momentum. From here we can anticipate a continued early in the week push or Consolidation structure as NYSE Open falls back to our mentioned Weekly and Daily Level's. I can see price holding these level's for a few sessions because the Bulls have a great interest in protecting these levels. Or else EU will fall back to 1.076 rather easily Weekly Target for Bulls if we hold these levels is 1.0948 More Analysis: I observed that London Session had a nice bullish breakout. Price had pulled back for the new 4Hr candle leaving a wick to fill in momentum and additionally to create a bottom wick for the new 4hr candle. So it could blast off like a spaceship away from our previous mentioned levels. Zone to Zone. My TP was at next technical level 1.0889 1Hr Level

EURUSD - A review of this week's newsWe're beginning to see a Tale Of Two Economies emerge, as US data this week shows the path of disinflation continues, albeit slowly, giving investors hope that the Fed's interest rate increases are making an impact. Meanwhile across the pond, all quotes from the ECB are warning that the fight against inflation rages on and further rate hikes will be coming. However, one major factor hanging over the Dollar is the news that there is "significant risk", according to the CBO, that the US won't be able to pay all of it's obligations as soon as the beginning of June, leading to the possibility of a default unless Congress votes to raise or suspend the Debt Ceiling. From a technical perspective we see EURUSD failed a number of attempts to break through at the highs and has now begun to create lower highs and lows with it's violent moves down in recent days. Key trendlines and support levels have been broken and all signs point to the countertrend move having begun. While we appear overextended on lower timeframes, it may be prudent to wait patiently for a new lower high for a viable short entry. It seems likely that we're witnessing a breakout to the upside on the DXY combined with profit taking and shift in sentiment for the Euro due to continued inflationary pressure in contrast to US inflation. United States (US): US CPI YoY 4.9% (Forecast 5%) : Consumer prices rose 4.9% on an annual basis, below forecast. US Core PPI YoY Actual 3.2% (Forecast 3.3%, Previous 3.4%): The US core Producer Price Index (PPI) rose by 3.2% year-on-year, slightly below the forecasted 3.3%. US PPI MoM Actual 0.2% (Forecast 0.3%, Previous -0.5%): The US Producer Price Index (PPI) increased by 0.2% on a monthly basis, slightly below the forecasted 0.3%. US Initial Jobless Claims Actual 264k (Forecast 245k, Previous 242k): The number of Americans filing for initial unemployment benefits rose to 264,000, exceeding the forecasted 245,000. This increase suggests ongoing challenges in the US job market. The “single biggest threat” to the economy now is the US hurtling towards a default on its obligations, said Karine Jean-Pierre, press secretary. European Central Bank (ECB): ECB: Consumers see 5% inflation over the next 12 months vs 4.6% in February : The European Central Bank (ECB) reports that consumers in the Eurozone expect inflation to reach 5% over the next 12 months. This represents an increase from the previous estimate of 4.6% in February, reflecting growing concerns about rising prices. ECB's Nagel says the "latest interest rate hike won't be the last". ECB's Lagarde spoke on Thursday, saying "the fight against inflation isn't over".

PPI News Release tomorrow. What is it? The U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) MoM release is tomorrow (14:30). In this idea I will talk about what it is and how we can make money of this as traders :) What the # is PPI? The Producer Price Index (PPI) measures the price change on the manufacturing side. In contrast to CPI, Consumer Price Index, which measures what consumers pay for their stuff! So, the PPI covers the price changes of the sellers and that is why it is widely considered as one of the most important indicators for inflation. How does PPI influence the dollar? When the PPI rises, this sends a message to the fed that inflation may be taking place so they should raise interest rates to 'fight' this inflation. The interest rates hikes generally lead to higher value of the dollar. Rising PPI = signal of inflation = policy of higher interest rates = more attractive to investors = dollar is more in demand = increase in value Same things goes for the other side: Low PPI = low indicator for inflation = message to fed to ease up with the rate hikes = lower interest rate = Generally bearish for the dollar. So always buy the dollar when PPI rises? NO! You should also take a look at the monetary policy of the counter currencies countries. Because lower interest rates in USA generally DON'T mean a decrease in the dollar value for USD/JPY if the interest rates are even MORE lowered in japan. Conclusion To be honest, the best way to 'make' money in the long term during major news events is to not trade at all. Because of the major volatility spike you can lose money very quickly and there is also have very high risk of slippage on your trades. Trading big news events is like gambling and that's not what we do. Maybe you experience a little bit of FOMO when you see the beautiful big moves that you 'could have gotten into' but it WILL pay off in the long run to avoid trading during major news events. I give daily ideas about market analysis, trading psychology and trading in general. ❤️ If you appreciate my work, please like, comment, follow and send to someone you think should read this. ❤️ If you don't then don't! :) @yorick7878 I wish you all good trading!

[ CPI ] : A Catalyst for Optimism? 🏳‍🟧‍⬛‍🟧- The Weekly candle pulled back up after creasing last week's low - The Daily Candle yesterday closed in between our Daily Level's 1.09715 and 1.09495 - This was good for bulls as I mentioned because we closed above 1.09495 - Either way Eurusd was still technically inside our overarching Daily range between 1.106 Daily/Weekly level and 1.09495 Daily Level - CPI Coincided with a Bounce off Daily Support at 1.09495! How Beautiful. I mentioned this occurrence in my update on my previous 2 Posts. CPI decreased signaling optimism for markets. Inflation is decreasing and is on a smooth downward projectory. -Now will we observe a continued change of character with CPI data as the catalyst. We reject our lower prices and bottom part of the range and go back to 1.106 Daily/weekly Level. -Our first pit stop to the upside being Monda's Daily Level at 1.10226? -Price is currently at . If the Daily candle closes like this I say yes. But we must observe how the daily candle closes and if there is a follow through after the Initial bounce from CPI on the 1Hr TF. -The 4Hr Timeframe closed beautifully rejecting our Support areas below + We must observe if the 4hr zone which coincides with our daily level at 1.09715 can hold for more upside + We must consider that we often see a correction of news price action. It can take 2-3 Hours, 1-3 Trading sessions , or 1-2 trading days. We would observe a correction down to 1.09456 More Analysis: Trading went well as I earned profits with reduced position size due to increased news volatility. I made a few mistakes but overall I can't complain with a +.65% profit on the session and and similar +.60% gain during yesterday's Asian Session. It makes up for the tough trading Day I had on Tuesday and plus some. I do want to learn from my mistakes so I will be doing some further reflecting .

The END is NEARNow I understand there are a lot of shenanigan's going on in the banking sector, but I'm not going to pretend to know how exactly this will affect the price of bank stocks. Everyone and their mom is now bearish on bank stocks from the constant news of bank failures and if I've learned anything from the markets is that the market always moves against the crowd. So I make my decisions strictly from the price action and volume obtained from charts. BAC has been trending on this blue support line since 2016. You can even take it back to 2011. Each time it has bounced off of this blue trend line. However this time, it will be different. This time we had an inverse head and shoulder from which price broke down with SIGNIFICANT volume Although the price has bounced from the blue trend line for right now, it has already rejected the previous support of the inverse head and shoulders at $30. Validating the breakdown with more downside to come. The fact that a bearish pattern broke down with such high volume right above the extremely strong blue trend line tells me price action is gathering strength to be able to break below this blue trend line after years of support. When this break below occurs, it will be nasty. A rapid fall in price, not slow and drawn out. An optimistic bounce area will be between 24 to 23. However, a break of a trend line this strong can only be accomplished with significant strength, in this case bearish strength. I see BAC falling to the 19.5 to 17.5 dollar range, an area that previously was a resistance but is now a support. When will this break down happen? I don't know, but price action is showing it is bound to happen in the upcoming future. Possibly after earnings are all done with.

💵 Dollar Buyers Pile Back in with NFP DataWell Dollar Buyers Piled back in with positive Jobs data. Eurusd returned back to the bottom of the range for the 3rd time in 2 Weeks. Our Daily Levels being 1.097 and 1.095. Quite the week for Swing traders and Scalpers playing the range.. Like who cares about breakouts anymore 😂. We were anticpating this data to take us out of the range and up to 1.115 but that is for another day. The Weekly candle will either Pullback up or continue dropping to end the week. It appears that we may be going to correct the NFP release at 1.10111. This occurs a majority of the time. The timing can be quite tricky however. I've seen it take 2-3 Days or 2-3 Trading Session or even 2-3 Hours. Yes, or even less than an hour. Either way have a great weekend. No trades today because the sum of my Previous 5 Friday's were profitable BUT only on 20% of the days. I had a Big Friday in Late March which brings the sum of my recent Friday's to a positive. If I had traded today I would have done well. But as mentioned previously the majority of Friday's are a Small Loss or Break even. It's Friday and even though I'm overall up on the sum of my friday's, I would rather save my energy and go enjoy the weekend. This doesn't mean that I can't still watch the charts. I did. I had a B.E. week. It's better than a Losing Week! Another week of experience under the belt. Safe Trading.

Very Strong Signal 📶 EURUSD 📶 Hello, friends, do not sell this pair because of the negative news, as the interest rate was negative yesterday on the dollar, so the euro must rise in front of it, so I will prefer the buying trend instead of selling, so we have three areas from which the price will reverse with a 99% confirmation rate €$$$$$$$$$$$$€$$$$$$$$$$€ The first area is the mitigation area from which the price may be reflected............ and the second area is the demand area...and the last and strongest area is the order block area...

Will we see a News Correction? 🙊 Inflation Data EU has been moving quite violently and was expected with inflation data. We took advantage of the momentum and took 4 buys as price left the 1.0922 key level. We originally took Sells from this level which played out nicely. However, just as we did last week, Price dips hard early in week. Then soars as the week progresses using news as a catalyst for a continuation of momentum. With new 4hr candle here, we may anticpate a top wick on the next 4hr candle. We may stretch to 1.103 daily/weekly wick fill today or tomorrow. That's short term target with this momentum. Most of the time the news corrects but also the market is very sensitive to cpi data . especially in recent months for obvious reasons. More Analysis: It is a good for bulls that the 4hr candle is closing above our daily Level at 1.09885. We also have clean traffic to the left hand side on the 4hr for bulls. For Bears we have the argument that we already have significant engulfing daily bullish candle. Additionally , fomo after some missed the entry from 1.0922 pre-news. Also 1.10 is a psycholigcal level for bulls and bears. So we may see some profit taking before heading any more north to Weekly wickfill at 1.103

NFP March 7th, 2023'In yesterdays publishing you can observe that our short term target was at 1.0938. Some buyers are taking profit as we have reached this minor zone 1Hr level. The bullish 4hr candle closed above 1.0918 which has been our Fakeout sell side entry area. This is bullish technically speaking. Looking at market structure it looks great. So we had a fakeout market strcutre display, but now look where the 4hr candle closed. EU being tricky. In larger context, I don't like buys as much at these prices. I like retests of 1.0867 to end the week off with NFP tomorrow. Price is consolidating near the Daily/Weekly highs and playing games. If we go Long, I like Bulls respecting 1.0918 , possibly wicking back down again to 1.089 and then rocket to mars at 1.103, Weekly timeframe wick fill. Trading : Fortunately, I did trade and anticipate sells off this level after news was released this morning. Price wicked up violently triggering my buy stop. In profit for two seconds then hit SL. Only half risk here. Consequently, I took sells after we whipped back down and created a low to go fill in momentum. I scaled in with full size effectively and picked up 7.3 pips in 6 minutes. I took one more sell for +2 pips with higher risk which worked out well. Took 1 more trade with half risk and closed for small loss. Called the day there.
