EURUSD Technical Analysis and Forecast 28.04 - 05.05 : Non-Trading Under Bearish

 

Last week we had non-trading market condition (flat sideaway) within primary bearish: price was below Ichimoku cloud and still did not cross Senkou Span A resistance line to go for uptrend. On the other side - the price was trying to cross 1.2973 support line but it was following Senkou Span A resistance line for whole the week.

If the price will cross 1.2954 support line so the bearish trend will be continuing. If the price will cross one of the border of the cloud (Sinkou Span A) - we will see ranging market condition with the possibility of the trend reversal.

  • Recommendation for long: None
  • Recommendation to go short: watch the price crossing 1.2954 support lines with initial stop loss 1.3128.
  • Trading Summary: possible short

Do you mean EURUSD, not ?
 
Not, USD - news event for the US (country). USD high impacted news events are affected on EUR, GBPUSD and JPY.
 
Yes, I see (it should be EURUSD instead of GBPUSD) - my mistake. I corrected it. Thanks for informing.
 

This is intra-day situation: breakout - price is crossing Ichimoku cloud but on open bar only for now. If price will cross the last border of the cloud (Sinkou Span B line) so we will have reversal to bullish.

Hi,

What do you mean by high impacted ? Is this news have impact on all currency pairs, or only one with USD ?

 
Usually - high impacted new events for USD are affected on EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDCHF and USDJPY. So, the users (who are trading those pairs) should be careful in trading during this time. Some traders are closing all open trades 3 or 5 minutes before high impacted news event, some traders are trading the new events.
 

Do you see the header of this thread? So, for now - the situation  was changed up to Ranging under Bearish:

Why ranging? Look at AbsoluteStrength indicator (from CodeBase here) - it is buy condition on the same with sell condition. Do you remember MACD with main line and signal line? So, this AbsoluteStrength indicator is having 2 of them: main/signal line for sell condition, and main/signal line for buy condition. If those 2 lines are showing the trend (both together) - it is ranging.
