EURUSD 11 Feb 2025 W7 - Intraday Analysis - Powell & Tariffs!This is my Intraday analysis on EURUSD for 11 Feb 2025 W7 based on Smart Money Concept (SMC) which includes the following:
Market Sentiment
4H Chart Analysis
15m Chart Analysis
Market Sentiment
My Weekly Analysis HERE still the same as Tariffs is the main theme but market reaction is the key.
Is the market got used to the Tariffs news so reactions will be soft and fade or we are going to see more fear in the market with Tariff War narrative?
Today Powell will be the market mover as investors are waiting for a clue for direction.
4H Chart Analysis
1️⃣
🔹Swing Bullish
🔹INT Bearish
🔹Reached Swing Extreme Demand
🔹Swing Continuation
2️⃣
🔹With the deep pullback to the Bullish Swing extreme discount and mitigating the 4H/Daily demand zones, price turned Bullish forming a Bullish CHoCH.
🔹The current Bullish move from Swing extreme discount to current price level having 2 scenarios:
Scenario 1: Pullback for Bearish INT Structure and with the recent Bearish CHoCK and Minor Demand zones are failing, I expect Bearish continuation to target the Weak INT Low which aligns with the Daily/Weekly Bearish Structure/Move. (Counter Swing – Pro Internal)
Scenario 2: Bullish Swing continuation to target the Weak Swing High. Which requires to have Demand holding and Supply failing. The first sign required to confirm this scenario will be the current Demand which price is currently at to hold and we form a Bullish CHoCH. (Pro Swing – Counter Internal)
3️⃣
🔹Expectations is set to Bearish to target the Weak INT Low as long LTFs are staying Bearish.
15m Chart Analysis
1️⃣
🔹Swing Bearish
🔹INT Bearish
🔹Swing Continuation
2️⃣
🔹Price reached the Strong Swing High (4H CHoCH) sweeping the liquidity and turning INT structure to bearish with iBOS.
🔹INT Structure continuing Bearish following the 4H Bearish INT structure Continuation.
🔹Since yesterday market open, price is ranging within the Bearish INT structure.
🔹Current INT High is the 4H CHoCH which could be taken out as liquidity for continuation down.
🔹After reaching the Bearish INT structure extreme price is moving down in a corrective PA and currently in the extreme discount of the INT Structure.
🔹For me, I’d prefer to short from the 4H Supply after sweeping the 15m INT High (4H CHoCH). No Long setups/confirmations are clear for me.
3️⃣
🔹Expectation is for price to continue Bearish targeting the 15m Weak Swing Low.
Multiple Time Frame Analysis

GpPa Model / EUR/USD Dynamic Limit Order Long EntryGpPa Analysis / Entry Justification under the GpPa Model
*The Analysis is the same as the conservative and dynamic entry*
The main entry is conservative, so, the analysis remains beside this part:
A long entry can be considered at the strong minimum, but I'll not go too far with the SL or TP. It can be used as a hedge if you're holding a position that performs well as the US Dollar does (like Magnificent 7 or other shorts in x/USD currency). Beside that, I'll consider this position the riskier of all.
1. Liquidity
a. Liquidity Related to Structure
The price’s liquidity is distributed within a relatively narrow range, marked by several highs and lows and a false manipulative bias (indicated as internal liquidity in a lighter color). This liquidity distribution suggests a long-term and mid-term bearish trend (notably from the M3 and M1 timeframes backward) that has weakened in the short term, evolving into a chaotic structure.
b. Liquidity Related to Directionality
The diagonal liquidity—responsible for driving the price to manipulate highs and lows—is more pronounced at the highs. However, the directional bias appears to favor mitigating the lows.
c. Decision Regarding Liquidity
Recent price action indicates the development of a retracement. This retracement could either continue the bearish trend or lead to a range-bound structure due to an exhausted bearish trend.
2. Trajectory / Direction (Structure)
a. Coefficient of Trajectory, Direction, and Validation
(-41.20%; -58.80%) 19.10%
These coefficients confirm the signals derived from the liquidity analysis. While the price shows a clear long-term and mid-term bearish trend, the opposing validation factor may indicate an exhaustion of the retracement—or even of the trend itself—thus reinforcing the possibility of a range-bound market.
3. Entries
a. Conservative Entry
The VWAP is placed alongside an additional FRVP at the major fractal preceding the M1 structure to define a conservative entry. Once positioned, this setup confirms the bearish character and the established range, allowing the identification of a high-probability entry at the manipulated high. This entry is validated by:
- Long-term volume
- A high-probability VWAP zone for shorts within the range
- A long-term order block (M1)
i. Coefficients of the Conservative Entry
- Fractal Quality Coefficient: 50.00%
- Entry Quality Coefficient: -19.82%
- Entry Probability: -50.00%
- Stop Loss Probability: -100.00%
- Take Profit Probability: -50.00%
The entry is highly likely to be mitigated over the long term, with the conservative analysis expiring on March 25, 2025. Although the quality is decent, it is not optimal since the evaluation was based solely on the VWAP.
The Stop Loss is set at 2 ATR from the last manipulated high (calculated from the median of the data) and is strongly protected by volume, two highs, two order blocks, and the VWAP level. This setup reflects an extremely optimistic scenario for the euro, which does not fully align with recent fundamental news—suggesting that a significant move would be necessary to breach this level.
The Take Profit should be seen not as a final objective but rather as a target for partial profit-taking and for moving the stop to breakeven once the objective is reached.
4. Other Comments
- The price is currently in a zone that attracts little interest from swing traders. As of February 10, 2025, the price is in a well-developed retracement, which discourages taking shorts lightly.
- A long trade might be considered at the manipulated minimum below the structure; however, given the euro’s recent fundamentals and the prevailing long-term and mid-term bearish trend, such a trade should only be executed with carefully adjusted Stop Loss and Take Profit levels.

*The Analysis is the same as the conservative and dynamic entry*
The main entry is conservative, so, the analysis remains beside this part:
If we're not sure if the conservative entry can be mitigated, we can use the balance one. It uses the same VWAP level at the following fractal, just one maximum below.

WTI crude bulls eye $74Crude oil prices fell over 11% from the January high before support was found at the 200-day SMA and 50% retracement level on Friday. Trump's latest tariffs saw commodities rise on inflationary concerns, and that allowed WTI futures to post a daily gain of 1.6% - its best day since the January high.
The 1-hour chart shows an impulsive move with no immediate threat of a top forming, and it seems plausible that the market is now reaching for $74 as part of a counter trend move, near the monthly pivot point and weekly R2.
However, as Monday's trading volume was the lowest of the year, it shows a lack of bullish enthusiasm. So unless we see volumes rising alongside prices, I am to assume the current bounce is simply a correction against the drop from the January high.

EUR/UISD - Strong Trade Setup (XCI Model)Hi all, If you have been following you would have seen I have been winning a lot of trades recently.... well, I have a new entry model Ive been playing with that works on any time frame in any market. Im naming it XCI.
I wont be posting with how it works in here but I will be sharing my trade setups I use it in.
This is one of them
Liquidity Sweep taken on a Long Term Bearish Market. Market jump left Imbalance to fill giving us a strong level to sell from. We have our OTE Zone Marked out with the discount zone we want to see price move into before selling off
Good Luck to the traders that follow
NIFTY seems to be retesting its BREAKOUT structure !As we can see despite the favourable result of winning the centre by ruling party, NIFTY failed to show its strength and fell unidirectionally as analysed in our previous post that if manages to remain below the trendline, we should be cautious. Now NIFTY can be seen re-testing the breakout structure and hence possible bullishness can be witnessed which could be short term unless it break sways the structure for change of characteristic and structure of overall market so plan your trades accordingly and keep watching.
Silver's Next Big Move? Dont Miss This High Probability Short!In this analysis, I break down my short trade setup on Silver (XAG/USD) using a multi-timeframe approach to identify key levels, structure shifts, and liquidity targets.
• Monthly Outlook: Strong bullish close in January, but price is trading within a range between 32.67 - 28.77.
• Weekly Structure: Consecutive bullish candles since December with no real retracement, signaling potential liquidity grab to the downside.
• H4 Breakdown: Clear market structure shift with a lower high at 32.65, rejecting key resistance and breaking prior lows.
• Entry & Target: Shorting from 32.07, with stops above 32.67, targeting a 1:2 risk-reward down to 30.68 initially, with a possible extension toward 29.69.
Looking for liquidity sweeps and a healthy pullback before further continuation. Already in profit—let’s see how it plays out!

Thank YOU, Update will be given in the UPDATE SECTION.
XRPUSD Still Bullish? SeekingPips XRP Ripple Long Term BUY ONLYIs XRP still a BUY?
🟢SeekingPips🟢 says keep it SIMPLE.
✅️If one was accumulating XRP Ripple for the LONG TERM and liked it at $3 why do you not like it NOW?✅️
ℹ️ Like I said before EVERYONE WAITS for the PULLBACK but when it turns up TRADERS/INVESTORS get SCARED to enter at these LOWER PRICES and some EVEN go SHORT and TRADE AGAINST their OWN BIAS.
💡It is a strange phenomenon but its VERY TRUE.
Do what the 1% do and you will be OK.
Bitcoin (BTCUSD) - The Chicken Will Come Home To Roost From the week of 16th Dec 2024, we have been trading up and down within that weekly price range and the longer Bitcoin does so, the bigger the explosion; whether it's to the upside or downside.
I am anticipating a sell-off down to a macro equilibrium point which is $88,000 as the first macro draw on liquidity.
Dow Jones (March 2025) - Leading The Stock Index PackAs of recently, YM have been seen stepping outside of the usual correlation ES and NQ would have as YM is presenting me with lower prices for the week than Nasdaq and ES indicating that further downside movement is possible this week.
Just like the rest of the market, there is a lot of indecision based on the tariffs Donald Trump is waiting to implement and we are seeing the splitting image of human psychology for YM. Investors and traders are currently unsure.
Nasdaq (March 2025) - Taking Nasdaq On A DateMe and Nasdaq had a GREAT time last week; riding the lows and highs from sunrise to sunset. Even though the initial target of Mon 27th Daily candles wick encroachment was met, the upside potential was astounding.
Besides that, NASDAQ’s price action over the past 2 months has been lacklustre, struggling to trend and stay in one direction but it’s no surprise as with all the geopolitical drama happening all over the world has caused many institutional traders to sit on their hands and wait.
Dollar Index - Trump & TariffsWith a lot of fundamental conflicts at play, one being the tariffs war on China, EU, Mexico and Canada (we don’t know yet if any more countries will be affected), we are seeing the result in price action.
We are trading in a range from 110.176 - 106.969 and so far, Dollar has managed to support the weekly BISI @ the 107.500 region but also trade up to and reject the 109.770 HTF PD array.
Ultimately, it will be fundamental news that will grant dollar the necessary volatility to run to liquidity pools. My guess, to the downside
ZB1! - Immaculate Draw on Buystops! What’s Next?This weeks breakdown covers the similarities bonds and yields have and as mentioned in my most recent analysis with Yields, I was loooking for a draw down to discounted prices.
With that bias in mind, Bonds would be more likely to trade higher as they both highly correlated.
BEARISH SWING SETUP ON EU The last setup I posted was bullish and did give a good reaction that I took as confirmation however the trade did not play out. This then caused a bearish choch on the daily and price has since pulled back and is now showing bearish structure.
Both swing and internal structure on the 4H timeframe and above are bearish so that is the direction I'm following right now.
Fractal structure on the 4H is currently bearish and I will continue trading in that direction targeting January's low.
