EUR USD - Bias: Bearish - limit order

99
Bias: Bearish

Market Structure and Reasoning:
The EUR/USD has been in an overall downtrend in recent days, forming successive lower highs and lower lows across multiple timeframes. The 4-hour chart shows a clear bearish momentum with price recently breaking below key support levels. On the 1-hour timeframe, we can observe a series of bearish candles with minimal retracement, indicating strong selling pressure. The 15-minute chart confirms this bearish structure with price trading below previous support zones.
Trading Setup:

The price is currently hovering around the 1.0788 level, which appears to be a weak support that has been tested multiple times. The overall structure suggests potential for continued downside movement.

Entry: 1.0795 (Limit Order)
Look to enter on a retracement to the 1.0795 level, which was previous support and may act as resistance on a retest.

Stop Loss: 1.0830
Place stop loss above the recent swing high, limiting risk to 35 pips.

Take Profit (TP1): 1.0760
First target at the recent low, providing a favorable risk-reward ratio.

Extended Take Profit (TP2): 1.0730
Second target at the psychological level which should provide stronger support.
Order Type: Limit Order
Wait for price to retrace to the entry level rather than chasing the current move.
Alternative Scenario:
If price breaks above 1.0830 with conviction, the bearish bias would be invalidated. In that case, wait for a potential shift in market structure before considering new positions.
