EUR/USD: plan for the US session on April 3. Bears continue to control the market and follow the set course to the lows of the year. The immediate goal is the support of 1.0718

To open long positions on EURUSD, you need:

Another sale of the European currency after the publication of business activity indices for the services sector of the eurozone led the pair to the support of 1.0790. I paid attention to this in the morning forecast. The 5-minute chart clearly shows how the bulls try to form a false breakout, successfully making several bounces from this level, but each time they meet with larger sales. At the moment, the further movement of the euro down depends on the analysis of data on the labor market. It is unlikely that the bulls should expect the support of 1.0790, so it is best to return to long positions after updating the minimum of 1.0718, provided that a false breakout is formed there, or immediately to rebound from the annual support of 1.0626. In the scenario of the pair's growth in the second half of the day after the data on the state of the US economy, the bulls will try to regain the resistance of 1.0880, which will push EUR/USD even higher, to the maximum of 1.0955, where I recommend fixing the profits.

To open short positions on EURUSD, you need:

Sellers continue to follow a clearly defined plan, keeping the pair in a downward trend throughout the week. Several unsuccessful attempts to bounce back from the support of 1.0790 only strengthened the presence of major players in the market, who are counting on a further fall in the euro after the report on the state of the US labor market. A breakout of 1.0790 will definitely lead the pair to the lows of 1.0718 and 1.0636, where I recommend fixing the profits. If the data is not as bad as many economists expect, it is possible that the euro will rebound up to the resistance area of 1.0880, from where I recommend opening short positions after forming a false breakout. You can sell EURUSD immediately on a rebound today from the maximum of 1.0955.
