The EURUSD pair is in an overall downtrend on the higher time frames and has recently been consolidating on the lower times.
Fundamental Considerations for the NFP:
- Consensus Forecast (High Probability) - Most analysts forecast a gain in the 169K–170K range, which lines up with recent trends. A neutral result would suggest that the labor market is still solid.
- Stronger-than-Expected Outcome (Medium Probability) - If the report comes in well above consensus (eg: above 190K jobs), it could reinforce expectations for a more hawkish stance by the Federal Reserve.
- Weaker-than-Expected Outcome (Low Probability) - A result below expectations (eg: fewer than 135K jobs) might trigger a reassessment of the US economic outlook, we will need to watch the markets and prepare for dynamic shifts.
Technical Findings:
- Weekly - Bearish and trading well below EMA's.
- Daily - Bearish & showing signs of 25 EMA rejection. Previous distribution is holding price at bay.
- 4 Hour - Strong supply levels holding and trading below the 200 EMA.
- 1 Hour - Close to overbought levels and LTF distribution is holding.
Important Notes:
- DXY is at a previous demand which proved to be a challenge to break through in the past.
- GBPUSD & EURUSD can have variations in the short term correlation but the technicals both align, which reinforces our EURUSD narrative.
- USDJPY technicals remain bullish on the long term however, the short term is in a downtrend and has reached a daily demand - we could potentially see a bullish reaction from here (based on DXY strength and the negative correlation with EURUSD)
Potential Scenarios & Probabilities:
- If the lows at 1.03800 fail we may need to adjust our entry zones based on where liquidity and supply are found.
- If price reaches the weaker supply level closer to the release of the NFP we can enter, however there is a chance we could get stuck in some drawdown if supply isn't strong enough to push through.
