EURUSD Analysis: Strategic Approach in Volatility PhaseOn the Weekly Chart, this looks like a regular day strolling down the road of simple support and resistance trading.

On the Weekly Chart, sideway consolidation occurred. When sideway consolidation happens, market expansion, known as a volatility increase phase, will definitely follow.
From what we had, at this moment, I'll be more inclined to take a buying opportunity at 1.0842 on the 1-hourly chart than to short at 1.0852.
Of course, this is not a sure thing; always plan and follow your trade plan.

The big question is where are the lows for fundamental levels for the next quarterly report. MSFT had higher revenues with slightly lower earnings. The CFO did not adjust earnings. It could gap or run down on news, but fundamentals are not way below the current price.

There are 2 ways I would engage it.
The first way is to wait for a break and close below the current trendline, and I'll wait for a retest before engaging the trade.
Another way would require the market to rebound and pause on the higher trendline. That is when I will wait for a candlestick pattern confirmation before engaging the trade.
