USDEUX trade ideas
EU faces new tariffs, Euro slides | FX ResearchThe euro surged in early Asian trade following the US–EU trade agreement announced over the weekend, but has since faced consistent selling pressure, eventually triggering stop-loss orders below 1.17, reflecting a classic buy-the-rumour, sell-the-fact market reaction.
The deal imposes 15% tariffs on most EU exports to the US, down from 25% for automobiles, while excluding pharmaceuticals and medical metals, with semiconductors still under review. The EU committed to buying $750 billion in US energy products over three years, investing further in the US, opening markets with zero tariffs, and purchasing significant US military equipment.
The EU trade commissioner noted the deal provides business predictability despite higher tariffs than the previous 4.8% average. German automakers, including Mercedes-Benz, acknowledged some relief but highlighted ongoing costs, while Spain's PM offered lukewarm support.
Meanwhile, South Korea is preparing a trade package focusing on shipbuilding cooperation, and US–China tariff talks resume in Stockholm. The US dollar's trajectory may shift with this week's FOMC updates, Q2 GDP, core PCE, inflation, and non-farm payrolls data. While a light-data Monday features only the Dallas Fed manufacturing survey.

EURUSD DOWN SIDE The dollar index (DXY00) on Tuesday rose by +0.22% and posted a 5-week high. The dollar has carryover support from Monday following the EU-US trade deal that is seen as favoring the US. Also, expectations for the Fed to keep interest rates unchanged at the end of Wednesday's 2-day FOMC meeting are supportive of the dollar. The dollar extended its gains after the US Jun advance goods trade deficit unexpectedly shrank, a supportive factor for Q2 GDP, and after July consumer confidence rose more than expected.
EUR/USD BULLISH BIAS RIGHT NOW| LONG
Hello, Friends!
EUR/USD pair is in the uptrend because previous week’s candle is green, while the price is obviously falling on the 1D timeframe. And after the retest of the support line below I believe we will see a move up towards the target above at 1.179 because the pair is oversold due to its proximity to the lower BB band and a bullish correction is likely.

✅LIKE AND COMMENT MY IDEAS✅
EUR/USD ADDED TO THE WATCHLISTPrice has fallen dramatically so we are on watch for a possible reversal (maybe short term) pattern to appear. Momentum is very low and looks prime to go up. We will need a hammer candle, with an engulfing confirmation candle, strong volume and in a best case scenario strong support to come off of. We will keep watching this one.
EURUSD LOSSES BULLISH MOMENTUM. WHERE TO GO?EURUSD LOSSES BULLISH MOMENTUM. WHERE TO GO?
The asset didn't reach the local resistance of 1.18300 and started to consolidate before reaching this level. RSI shows weakness of the impulse on 4-h chart, as well as MACD is in the red zone. Therefore, we expect the price to slowly decline towards local trendline, where SMA200 is situated.
EURUSD Did Not Like the EU–US DealThe heavily one-sided EU–US deal has put negative pressure on EURUSD. Ahead of a crucial week filled with major events, including GDP data from both the Eurozone and the US, the PCE report, payrolls, and meetings from the FOMC and BOJ, EURUSD has broken a short-term head and shoulders formation. The pattern's target is near 1.1610.
A retest of the broken support is possible and could even extend to 1.1725. However, unless sentiment changes due to some news, this move may offer only a selling opportunity. The downward trend could also continue without pause.
Options market activity suggests that the 1.16 to 1.18 range is viewed as a "safe zone," with large players likely aiming to keep EURUSD within this band for the week. If the head and shoulders target is reached, EURUSD might stabilize and bounce around the 1.16 level.
EURUSD EURUSD is on an exhaustion trend after a long buy, taking a sell correctional move. The market objective yet to be fulfilled, we continue the sells the the objective is fulfilled. Having a valid sell structure that lead to a break of structure, having a structural liquidity making the low a protected low. Looking to take a sell from the supply zone(strong low) and target the weak high
EURUSD: A Bearish Continuation?From my previous analysis, we anticipated a short-term decline on the EURUSD for a Daily bearish pullback. Price respected our zone and made a even stronger sweep before plummeting as forecasted.
Currently, price has returned to mitigate that liquidity sweep. Given the prior impulsive bearish move—which this current bullish correction stems from—we expect another drop, targeting the weak structure below for a potential liquidity grab or continuation.
We'll continue to monitor how price behaves around the current levels, but unless there's a significant shift in momentum, our bearish outlook remains valid. ✅

EURUSD - Counter trend idea.-In the monthly (higher timeframes), EURUSD is bullish.
-In the weekly timeframe, the was a momentous price reaction at the 1w BoS, making it a very strong area of liquidity and unlikely to be broken further in the short term period but maybe tested.
In the the daily and timeframe EU is bearish, but it is just a possible higher timeframe retracement, but still we are looking for opportunities in that retracement too.
-Above is our low probability low risk idea. We are only risking 10 Pips.
EURUSD - Scaling into Confluence ZoneTaking a look at EURUSD on the daily timeframe we had quite the rebound in EURUSD last Friday following the NFP report. However price action is now heading towards a cluster of resistance levels which is why I'm implement my scaling in technique using a specially designed and programmed EA that i use for MT5.
== TRADE PLAN ==
Scale-in with short positions and target a 0.5% growth on the account. In other words, once the basket arrives in profit by 0.5% CLOSE ALL.

EURUSD Current Market Situation Technical Analysis Current Market Situation
The chart displays a Double Top pattern, a strong bearish reversal signal that often indicates the start of a downward move.
The price has already broken the neckline, and it is now approaching a retest of both the neckline and the broken trendline, which serves as a critical resistance area for potential bearish continuation.
Key Zones
Neckline Retest Zone: Around 1.1600, acting as immediate resistance.
Trendline Retest Zone: Between 1.1670 – 1.1700, serving as an additional resistance level to confirm the bearish bias.
Potential Scenarios
✅ Bearish Scenario (Preferred):
If price respects the retest zones and fails to break higher, we may see a decline toward:
Target 1: 1.1500
Target 2: 1.1400
Target 3: 1.1300
⚠ Bullish Scenario (Alternative):
A clear breakout and daily close above 1.1700 would invalidate the bearish outlook and could lead to a bullish reversal.
Conclusion
The market structure currently favors the bears.
Rejection from the neckline or trendline retest zones will provide a strong confirmation for sell positions.

EUR/USD Daily Chart Analysis For Week of August 1, 2025Technical Analysis and Outlook:
In this week's trading session, the Euro experienced a significant drop, reaching the 1.139 level, and completing what is referred to as the Inner Currency Dip. As a result of the completion, the currency reversed direction and made a strong rebound, hitting the Mean Resistance level at 1.160. Recent analyses suggest that the Euro is likely to enter a sustained downward move after retesting the Mean Resistance at 1.160, with the target set to revisit the completed Inner Currency Dip at 1.139. However, it is essential to consider the possibility of continued upward momentum towards the Mean Resistance level of 1.177. Such a movement could trigger a significant rebound and lead to the completion of the Outer Currency Rally at 1.187.
