#EURUSD - 21 OctI was bullish EURUSD on Friday, despite the many days of selling in EURUSD and the plan given worked perfectly. I said EURUSD will see a move higher to 1.0863 before any down move would occur. Indeed, EURUSD trended up over 40 pips for the day, closing at 1.0863 as given. And today it hit the strong level at 1.0873. Is sell coming? Is this just a pullback before further downside or will we see further upside?
1.0873 strong level traded could see a pullback, but overall, I am cautiously bullish for another move higher. Look for longs at 1.0837/47 for a move higher, to 1.0900.
Bearish reversal?The Fiber (EUR/USD) is rising towards the pivot point which is a pullback resistance and could reverse to the 1st support level which acts as an overlap support.
Pivot: 1.0896
1st Support: 1.0834
1st Resistance: 1.0955

EU Double Top Breaks Rising Support, 300+ Pip Sell Set-Up!Here I have FX:EURUSD on the Daily Chart!
After last weeks Double Top was Confirmed, we see Price make a Bearish Break to and through the Rising Support created by the April, June and August Lows.
-The Testing Candle alone generates ~500K in Selling Volume making the Rising Support weak enough to then Break Down to where price sits now.
Applying the Fibonacci Retracement Tool from the Higher High @ 1.12138 to the Lower Low @ 1.08107, we can see a couple things:
*23.6% Level sits right at the 200 EMA which is curving down and Price is now trading Below
*38.2% Level sits right in the center of the Resistance Zone created from the March Highs
*50% Level is at the Higher Low that was Broken to Confirm the Double Top
I suspect that Price will need to Retest the Break of Rising Support before it can continue to Push Down!
Potential Set-Up: Sell Entry
1.09058 (23.6%) - 1.09647 (38.2%)
SL - 1.10112 (50%)
TP - 1.0665
EUR/USD Eyeing Key Resistance Zones for BreakoutEUR/USD has been on a steady upward trajectory, supported by a clear trendline that has provided consistent buying interest. The current structure indicates a potential bullish continuation after a brief consolidation or pullback.
The pair is now targeting key resistance levels at 1.09012 and 1.09365. The first challenge for the bulls is breaking through 1.09012, a strong resistance that has been tested previously. A successful breach of this level could lead to a rapid move towards the major resistance at 1.09365.
The chart suggests that any retracement towards the trendline or the dashed horizontal support will likely attract more buyers, offering a high-probability setup for further upside. Should this retracement occur, buyers might seek opportunities near 1.08552 before attempting another push higher.
If the price breaks above 1.09365, we could see a continuation of the broader bullish trend, potentially heading towards 1.1000 or higher. However, failure to maintain the upward momentum around these key resistance levels could lead to a deeper correction.
We should watch for price action around 1.09012 for confirmation of a breakout, while keeping an eye on the trendline as a guide for support.
EUR/USD Pauses After Four-Day Slide as USD Rally EasesThe EUR/USD pair takes a breather on Friday, following a prolonged four-day losing streak, as the US Dollar's (USD) strong rally shows signs of slowing. The Euro attempts to stabilize after a tough week, with the pair hovering slightly higher, supported by a momentary pause in the USD’s upward momentum. Despite this pause, the outlook for the Greenback remains positive, particularly after Thursday’s encouraging US economic data, which continues to reinforce the idea of a resilient American economy.
USD Momentum Eases After Strong Economic Data
The US Dollar has experienced a robust run in recent weeks, driven by a strong economy and expectations of higher interest rates from the Federal Reserve. However, the rally took a pause on Friday, despite the release of better-than-expected US economic data. September’s Retail Sales increased by 0.4%, surpassing market forecasts, while the Initial Jobless Claims for the week ending October 11 came in lower than anticipated at 241,000, compared to an expected 260,000. These figures underscored the strength of the US labor market and consumer spending, further bolstering the Federal Reserve’s stance on maintaining elevated interest rates.
Even though the positive data continues to favor the USD, the currency’s upward trajectory has temporarily slowed, allowing the EUR/USD pair to consolidate after a sharp decline earlier in the week. This pause in the Greenback's rally offers the Euro some relief, though the broader trend remains USD-favorable in the near term.
Technical Outlook: EUR/USD Prepares for a Potential Rebound
From a technical standpoint, the EUR/USD pair is showing early signs of a potential bullish rebound. The pair has bounced from a critical demand area, suggesting that buying interest is emerging at these lower price levels. Furthermore, the Commitment of Traders (COT) report reveals a significant divergence between retail and institutional sentiment. While retail traders remain predominantly bearish, large institutional investors—commonly referred to as "smart money"—have begun to increase their long positions on the Euro. This discrepancy in positioning could signal a reversal in market direction, potentially favoring the Euro in the near term.
Seasonality patterns also support a possible recovery in the EUR/USD, as historical data suggests that the Euro tends to perform well during this period of the year. Taken together, the technical indicators and seasonal trends point toward a possible bullish setup, where traders might look to enter long positions, anticipating further upside movement.
Conclusion: EUR/USD Seeks Stability as USD Rally Temporarily Stalls
The EUR/USD pair has found some much-needed support after several days of losses, as the relentless USD rally slows down following strong US economic data. Despite the positive fundamentals supporting the Greenback, technical indicators hint that the Euro may be on the verge of a recovery. The rebound from key demand levels, coupled with institutional long positioning and supportive seasonality, suggests that the EUR/USD could be setting up for a bullish move. Traders should remain vigilant, as the pair’s next move will depend on evolving market conditions and the upcoming data releases that could further influence the direction of both currencies.

EURUSD 20/10/24Following the bias we had on the Euro last week, the same outlook remains in place. Our high time frame bias on the daily chart is clearly bearish, supported by a strong downward movement. All the indicators are aligning with further price declines, and as you can see, the institutional trajectory is also pointing lower.
We are looking for a potential pullback to the supply area, where we would consider selling to target lower prices. This area is marked on our chart. If price breaks through the supply zone, we would then expect a rise towards some of the liquidity positioned above. However, if price does not break through and continues to drop, the next level we anticipate price stalling at is 1.08000, a key level that could serve as liquidity for the last low placed on the daily timeframe.
As always, our markup is kept simple to help you stay on the right side of the market without overcomplicating things. Remember, a straightforward system can still provide a consistent directional bias. You don't need a complex strategy to achieve this.
Trade safely, follow your plan, and stick to your risk management.
NASDAQ - It's Not All Doom And Gloom...NASDAQ 2WEEK CHART
Red EMA = Weekly 50EMA
Blue EMA = Monthly 50EMA
Nasdaq is on a steady incline but with all good things, it must end... kinda. Every so often we get a big correction. The last time we got a correction was in early 2022 where we saw a drop of 38%! After the corrective period ended, we saw a climb of over 100%.
It is likely that we'll see a similar corrective period soon.
We have the Weekly EMA holding up price, which has been respected really well. We can use that as confirmation to tell us when the corrective period has started.
We also have the monthly EMA which we can use to gauge where we'll bounce off from. We could see another 30%-40% drop for the next correction, which will lead us nicely to the monthly EMA where we have seen a bounce previously.
We're still expecting price to move a little higher so we'll be keeping a close eye on this.
As to what will cause this correction is yet to be determined. Various fundamental factors can play a part such as War, Recession, Inflation etc.

EURO - Price can make retest, after exiting, and continue growHi guys, this is my overview for EURUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊
A few moments ago price entered to rising channel, where it reached $1.1080 level and broke it.
Then price some time rising in channel, until it reached resistance line, after which price started to decline.
In a short time, EUR exited from rising channel and continued to decline inside wedge, where it soo broke $1.1080 level.
Later, price fell to support line of wedge and then tried to grow, but failed and continued to decline.
After this, Euro broke $1.0905 level and fell to support line, but recently price bounced up, thereby exiting from wedge.
Now, I think that price can make a retest and then bounce up to $1.0940, thereby breaking resistance level.

SasanSeifi| Key Levels to Watch in the Daily Timeframe!Hey there, ✌ FX:GBPUSD In the daily timeframe, as evident from the chart, after a bullish move, the price has struggled to break above the 1.34 level and, following a period of consolidation, has faced a downward trend. Currently, the price is trading around 1.30. The overall trend suggests a bearish outlook, and it’s expected that if the price breaks below the 1.30 level and confirms this breakdown, we could see it heading towards the target of 1.29500.
After this move, the price may enter a range-bound or minor consolidation phase before dropping further to the 1.28500 area and the demand zone around 1.28.
Alternatively, another scenario is possible where if the 1.30 level holds, and we observe confirmations in lower timeframes, the price could rise towards the FVG zone between 1.30200 to 1.32700 and potentially up to 1.33. In this scenario, after a slight rally and pullback, the price might return to the 1.30 and 1.29500 levels.
It’s crucial to closely monitor the price’s reaction to these levels for better insight into future movements.

Getting Started with Forex Prop Trading: Intro Guide🔸Forex prop trading (short for foreign exchange proprietary trading) refers to a trading model where traders use capital provided by a proprietary trading firm to trade in the Forex (foreign exchange) market. Unlike traditional retail trading, where traders use their own funds, prop traders operate with the firm's capital, typically after passing a series of evaluations to prove their trading skills and risk management abilities. In return, the firm takes a percentage of the profits generated by the trader.
🆕 Here’s a more detailed look at how forex prop trading works and why it's appealing:
🔸 Access to Capital
Prop firms offer substantial capital to skilled traders, allowing them to trade with much larger account sizes than they might be able to on their own. For example, a trader might be funded with anywhere from $10,000 to $1,000,000 or more, depending on their experience and the firm's offerings.
🔸 Evaluation Process
Most prop firms require traders to pass an evaluation or assessment phase before providing access to live capital. This involves trading on a demo account and meeting specific performance metrics like profit targets, drawdown limits, and risk management rules. If the trader successfully passes this phase, they are then given access to a live account with the firm's capital.
🔸 Profit Sharing
Once a trader is funded, they enter into a profit-sharing agreement with the firm. Typically, the trader receives a percentage of the profits, often around 70-90%, while the firm keeps the rest as compensation for providing the capital and infrastructure. For example, if a trader makes $10,000 in profits and their profit split is 80/20, they would keep $8,000 while the firm takes $2,000.
🔸 Risk Management
Prop firms are very strict about risk management because they are providing their own capital. They impose limits on the maximum drawdown (the amount a trader can lose), daily loss limits, and leverage. If these rules are violated, traders risk losing their funded status.
🔸 Advantages for Traders
Low Financial Risk: Traders do not need to risk their own capital, reducing personal financial exposure.
No Pressure to Invest Large Sums: With access to firm capital, traders don’t need to save up large amounts to trade at higher levels.
Support and Resources: Many prop firms provide educational resources, trading platforms, and tools to help their traders succeed.
🔸Types of Prop Firms
Prop firms can generally be categorized into two types:
🔸Traditional Prop Firms: These firms often require traders to work in-office and provide access to a wide range of markets beyond Forex, including stocks, commodities, and derivatives. Online Prop Firms: The more popular model today, these firms operate remotely, allowing traders from around the world to participate.
🔸 Fees
Most prop firms charge traders an initial fee to cover the evaluation process. This fee can range from a few hundred to a couple of thousand dollars, depending on the account size. In many cases, this fee is refundable if the trader successfully completes the evaluation.
🔸 Challenges
Strict Rules: If traders fail to adhere to the firm's rules (such as daily loss limits or maximum drawdown), they can lose their funded account.
Pressure to Perform: Trading with someone else’s capital can create pressure, which can affect trading decisions and lead to mistakes if not handled well.
🔸Bot Algo Trading in Forex
Algorithmic trading (algo trading) involves using pre-programmed instructions (algorithms) that can automatically execute trades in the Forex market based on specific conditions. These conditions can be price, volume, time, or other market indicators. Algo trading has become increasingly popular in the Forex market due to its ability to:
▪️Execute trades at high speed without the need for human intervention.
▪️Remove emotional biases, which can often lead to poor decision-making in trading.
▪️Test and optimize strategies through backtesting on historical data to ensure effectiveness.
▪️Implement complex strategies that would be difficult for a human to execute manually.
🔸what is a Bot Algo Expert?
A bot algo expert is typically a professional who specializes in developing and optimizing trading algorithms (bots) for Forex markets. They possess skills in coding, often using languages like Python, MQL4/5 (MetaQuotes Language), and other programming languages tailored to financial markets.
🔸The expert focuses on building bots that can:
▪️Identify trading signals based on technical indicators (like moving averages, RSI, Bollinger Bands).
▪️Automatically execute trades when certain criteria are met (such as entering or exiting positions).
▪️Manage risk by setting stop-loss and take-profit orders to minimize potential losses.
▪️Optimize performance by regularly updating the algorithm based on market conditions.

EURUSD Stuck in a Range: Will the Oscillation Break or Hold?EURUSD has faced repeated resistance at the psychological 1.1200 level, unable to break through, leading to the formation of significant bearish candles. The pair remains trapped in a consolidation phase, with no clear breakout in sight. Meanwhile, the recent upward momentum of the DXY hints at mounting downward pressure on EURUSD. Given these factors, I anticipate continued oscillation within the current range, with my focus set on a downside target at the 1.10800 support level.

Replace a 100 000 USD salary with income from trading🔸 Develop a Strong Foundation in Forex Trading
Before considering Forex as a full-time source of income, it’s essential to build a solid foundation in trading.
▪️Learn the Basics: Understand Forex fundamentals such as how currency pairs work, how to read charts, how the market operates, and how global economic events affect price movements.
▪️Master Technical and Fundamental Analysis: Study technical analysis (price action, indicators, chart patterns) and fundamental analysis (macroeconomic data, interest rates, geopolitical events). This allows you to make informed trading decisions.
▪️Study Risk Management: Managing risk is crucial to avoid catastrophic losses. Learn how to calculate position sizes, set stop-losses, and limit leverage. Most professional traders risk no more than 1-2% of their capital per trade.
▪️Backtest and Paper Trade: Test your trading strategies on historical data and in demo accounts to ensure they are profitable over time. This will help you refine your approach without risking real money.
🔸 Create and Test a Trading Strategy
A successful trading career requires a well-defined trading strategy. This is critical for consistency and profitability.
▪️Define Your Trading Style: Determine whether you are a day trader, swing trader, or position trader, based on your risk tolerance, time availability, and financial goals.
▪️Build a Strategy Based on Time Frames and Setups: Whether you focus on scalping, trend trading, or breakout strategies, you need a strategy that works for your trading style. Be sure to incorporate indicators (moving averages, Fibonacci retracement, RSI) and a risk-reward ratio.
▪️Test the Strategy: Test your strategy on demo accounts or paper trade until you have confidence in its profitability over the long run. A good strategy should consistently deliver positive results over several months and market conditions.
🔸 Accumulate Enough Capital
Forex trading requires sufficient capital to replace a salary and generate consistent income.
▪️Set Realistic Capital Requirements: The amount of capital you need will depend on how much monthly income you need and how much risk you are willing to take. Generally, to replace a full-time salary with Forex income, you will need significant capital (likely in the range of $50,000–$100,000 or more). This amount allows you to generate enough returns without taking excessive risks.
▪️Calculate Your Required Return on Investment (ROI): Let’s say you need $3,000 per month to replace your salary. If you have a $100,000 account, you would need a 3% return per month. If your account is smaller (e.g., $10,000), you would need a much higher (and riskier) 30% return, which is unrealistic in the long run.
▪️Use Leverage Cautiously: Leverage can magnify both profits and losses. While Forex brokers often offer high leverage (e.g., 50:1, 100:1), it’s essential to use leverage cautiously, as it can lead to significant losses if a trade goes against you.
EURUSD continues to maintain an increasing rangeConan, hello everyone.
Today, EUR/USD is maintaining its initial bullish bias below 1.0800, after closing the session with a steady gain above the intact bullish channel. The pair is supported by optimism over China's stimulus measures and a broad correction in the US dollar, which helped reverse the decline caused by the ECB's dovish decision.
On the other hand, any further upside is likely to face resistance around 1.0974, above which, it could trigger a short-term recovery and push EUR/USD towards the psychological level of 1.1020.
EUR/USD should buy or sell ?Hello everyone!
The EUR/USD pair has just broken a four-day losing streak and is currently hovering around 1.0840 in the Asian session on Friday. The recent decline has been largely driven by the strengthening of the US Dollar, with the greenback hitting a two-month high of 103.87 on Thursday. Despite the strong recovery, the market is now gradually shifting towards expectations that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) may cut interest rates soon, helping the EUR/USD pair recover slightly and minimize losses in the short term.
As seen on the 4-hour chart, the EUR/USD downtrend remains clear, however, the key support zone at 1.0810 and then 1.0777 is still holding. Moreover, a harmonic pattern has formed, signaling a potential reversal, at least towards the 1.0980 level, where confluence signals are emerging strongly.
Do you think this pair could reverse and rise again soon? Don't miss out on the exciting trading opportunities that await!

HelenP. I Euro can break trend line and then continue to fallHi folks today I'm prepared for you Euro analytics. In this chart, we can see how the price some days ago rebounded from the resistance zone, which coincided with resistance 1 and started to grow. In a short time, EUR rose to resistance 2, which coincided with one more resistance zone (1.1170 - 1.1140), and even rose a little higher, but soon turned around and declined below. Next, the price some time traded below resistance 2, after which it later turned around and rose back to the resistance zone (1.1170 - 1.1140). Price some time traded in this area, until it reached the trend line, after which price started to decline. In a short time, the EUR broke the resistance level (1.1140) and continued to decline near the trend line. Later price reached the resistance zone (1.0925 - 1.0900) and soon broke resistance 1, after which made a retest and then continued to move down. At the moment price trying to break the trend line, and I expect that EURUSD will break this line, reach the resistance level, and then continue to fall to the trend line. That's why I set my goal at 1.075 points. If you like my analytics you may support me with your like/comment ❤️
EUR/USD dips after ECB lower ratesThe euro can’t find its footing and has tumbled 2.7% in October. EUR/USD has stabilized on Friday and is trading at 1.0835 in the European session, up 0.05%. On Thursday, the euro dropped as low as 1.0810, its lowest level since August 2.
The European Central Bank didn’t surprise anybody with a quarter-point rate cut on Thursday, the first back-to-back rate cuts since December 2011. The markets had fully priced in the move and the euro responded with slight losses. ECB President Lagarde has discarded forward guidance and stressed that rate decisions will be on a meeting-by-meeting basis, but the markets smelled a rate cut, with low inflation and weak economic growth.
The rate statement was optimistic, noting that the “disinflationary process is well on track” and that the inflation outlook had improved due to “recent downside surprises” in economic activity.
The ECB has cut rates three times this year and is expected to remain aggressive. The markets expect are forecasting rate cuts of 25 basis points at each of the next three meetings.
The eurozone inflation release, made just before rate announcement on Thursday, showed inflation falling to 1.7% y/y, down from the initial estimate of 1.8% and below the 2.2% gain in August. The decline in inflation was helped by a sharp drop in energy prices. Services inflation remains high but eased to 3.1% y/y, down from 2.9% in August. The inflation report reached a milestone, dropping below the ECB’s target of 2% for the first time since July 2021.
EUR/USD is testing resistance at 1.0835. Above, there is resistance at 1.0866
1.0803 and 1.0776 are the next support levels
