EUR/USD Analysis: Low Volatility Ahead of US CPI Release, Market Players Brace for Potential Impact on Risky Assets

No price test occurred in EUR/USD this morning due to low volatility and empty macroeconomic calendar. But ahead lies the latest consumer price index in the US, which will likely force many market players to review their positions on risky assets. Demand for euro may drop, which could lead to a decline in the pair.

 

There will be an increase only when inflation drops more than expected. Markets will also pay attention to the speeches of FOMC members Neel Kashkari and Raphael Bostic. For long positions: Buy when euro hits 1.1036 (green line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.1075. Growth will occur amid weak US inflation.

 

However, when buying, traders should make sure that the MACD line lies above zero or rises from it. Euro can also be bought after two consecutive price tests of 1.1017, but the MACD line should be in the oversold area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.1036 and 1.1075.

For short positions: Sell when euro reaches 1.1017 (red line on the chart) and take profit at the price of 1.0981.

Pressure will increase in the case of another jump in US inflation. However, when selling, traders should make sure that the MACD line lies below zero or drops down from it.

Euro can also be sold after two consecutive price tests of 1.1036, but the MACD line should be in the overbought area as only by that will the market reverse to 1.1017 and 1.0981.

 

 

 

What's on the chart:

Thin green line - entry price at which you can buy EUR/USD

Thick green line - estimated price where you can set Take-Profit (TP) or manually fix profits, as further growth above this level is unlikely.

Thin red line - entry price at which you can sell EUR/USD

Thick red line - estimated price where you can set

Take-Profit (TP) or manually fix profits, as further decline below this level is unlikely.

MACD line- it is important to be guided by overbought and oversold areas when entering the market

 

 

 

Important:

Novice traders need to be very careful when making decisions about entering the market.

Before the release of important reports, it is best to stay out of the market to avoid being caught in sharp fluctuations in the rate. If you decide to trade during the release of news, then always place stop orders to minimize losses. Without placing stop orders, you can very quickly lose your entire deposit, especially if you do not use money management and trade large volumes.

And remember that for successful trading, you need to have a clear trading plan. Spontaneous trading decision based on the current market situation is an inherently losing strategy for an intraday trader.
