Buyers continued to push the euro higher amid rising optimism. If you look at the 5-minute chart, you can see how the breakout and consolidation of the euro above the resistance of 1.0928, which I paid attention to in my forecast this morning, led to the continuation of bullish momentum, supported by rumors that the EU may make concessions to the UK on the issue of trade relations. The sales that I recommended to make after the level of 1.0966 was updated also took place, but a larger downward correction could not be obtained. At the moment, new levels have been formed, which should be emphasized when making decisions in the afternoon. It is best to return to long positions after updating the level of 1.0953, provided that a false breakout is formed there or buy EUR/USD immediately for a rebound from the minimum of 1.0917, where the moving averages also pass, in the expectation of a rebound of 20-30 points within the day. While trading will be conducted above the range of 1.0953, we can expect the continued growth of the euro to the maximum of last week (1.1006), where I recommend fixing the profits.

To open short positions on EURUSD, you need:

Sellers have tried several times to return to the market, as can be seen on the 5-minute chart. However, they have not yet managed to achieve a larger downward movement. The emphasis in the afternoon will be placed on the report on the financial stability of the eurozone, as well as on the data on the consumer confidence index in the United States, where good indicators, similar to the leading consumer climate index in Germany, can lead to a partial strengthening of the US dollar against the euro. The main task of the bears for the second half of the day will be to return the pair to the support level of 1.0953, fixing under which will lead to a larger sale of EUR/USD to the area of the minimum of 1.0917, where I recommend fixing the profits, since large buyers will surely return to the market from this level. If the demand for the euro continues, then short positions in the conditions of such a strong upward trend can be counted on only after updating the maximum of 1.1006, and then only with a small bounce down of 15-20 points within the day.
