Termos de Referência
- These are deeper than just interest rates or economic reports:
• Eurozone Bond Spreads: Watch the Germany 10Y Bund vs. US 10Y Treasury. A narrowing spread typically strengthens EUR.
• Dollar Liquidity Cycles: Fed repo/reverse repo operations, swap lines, and FX swap markets offer clues about dollar demand.
• ECB Tone Shifts: Pay attention to subtle shifts in ECB members’ speeches—particularly Klaas Knot, Isabel Schnabel, and Christine Lagarde.
The EA needs to master the timing zone
- EUR/USD behavior changes depending on session timing:
Session Characteristics
•London Open (3AM–5AM EST) High volatility, breakouts common. Best time for news fade or continuation trades.
New York Open (8:30AM–11AM EST) News-driven. Liquidity spike. Fade or scalp based on USD reaction to macro data.
London Close (11AM–12PM EST) “Fixing flows” cause whipsaws. Often a reversal point.
Asia Session (6PM–12AM EST) Range-bound. Good for mean-reversion or low-vol scalps.
The EA needs to use the Price Action Secrets Used by Pros as follows:
• Liquidity Pools Around Round Numbers: Institutions place large orders around 1.1000, 1.1050, 1.1100, etc.
• False Breakouts: EUR/USD is notorious for “fakeouts” before a real move. Look for stop hunts then reversal confirmation.
• Fractal Behavior: Watch how price behaves near key EMAs (like 21/50/200). They often align with algo-driven zones.
The EA needs to implement Institutional Order Flow Awareness
• Watch for CFTC Commitment of Traders (COT) reports weekly. Look at non-commercial net positions.
• Use platforms like Bookmap or TradingLite for live order book heatmaps (if available).
• Consider using volume profile and VWAP to see where smart money is accumulating or distributing.
The EA needs to use the Top Technical Tools (Used by Algo Desks)
• Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) intraday and weekly.
• Anchored VWAP from key highs/lows or news events.
• Bollinger Band + RSI Confluence on 4H chart — classic squeeze/release setups.
• Fibonacci Clusters with ATR-based zones — for institutional SL/TP placements.
The EA needs to
- Develop a system around risk-adjusted returns, not just win rate.
- Use backtesting across macro cycles (2015–2023) to adapt my strategy to different regimes (e.g., QE, QT, pandemic, inflation spike).
The EA needs to use the following strategies:
1. London Breakout Strategy
• Time: 3AM–5AM EST
• Entry: Break of Asian session high/low
• SL: 20 pips | TP: 40 pips | Success Rate: 55–62%
2. Reversion to Mean
• Time: Low-volatility sessions
• Entry: Price deviates 1.5x ATR from VWAP
• Exit: Return to VWAP
• Works best Mon–Wed
3. ECB/FOMC “Lag Trade”
• If initial market reaction to news is large, wait for retrace to 50% of the move.
• Enter in direction of original move after pullback. Target fib extension.
