The EUR/USD currency pair is at a pivotal moment! Adam Lemon, the Chief Analyst at DailyForex, presents a compelling forex signal for traders to consider.
But is this the right move?
Lemon's previous EUR/USD signal on February 5th didn't pan out, but his latest analysis suggests a potential turning point. He identifies a pivotal point at $1.1887, which was once a support level but now acts as a barrier to further price increases. The recent US jobs and earnings data have strengthened the US Dollar, causing the EUR/USD price to break below this critical level.
Here's the strategy:
Short Trade Ideas:
- Execute a short trade if there's a bearish price action reversal on the H1 timeframe when the price touches $1.1887, $1.1949, or $1.1975.
- Set the stop loss just above the local swing high.
- Adjust the stop loss to break even once the trade is 20 pips in profit.
- Take partial profits by closing 50% of the position when the price reaches 20 pips in profit, and let the rest of the position run.
Long Trade Ideas:
- Go long after a bullish price action reversal on the H1 timeframe when the price touches $1.1833, $1.1806, or $1.1766.
- Place the stop loss just below the local swing low.
- Follow the same stop loss adjustment and profit-taking strategy as the short trade.
Lemon emphasizes the importance of identifying classic price action reversals, such as pin bars, dojis, or engulfing candles, to confirm these trade ideas. He also notes that the technical picture suggests a potential bullish move, with the price finding support at $1.1833 and forming a bullish "square root" pattern with a double bottom around $1.1850.
The key to success, according to Lemon, is for retail traders to manage their risks, follow trends, and persist through short-term losses, all while using reputable brokerages. With his extensive experience in financial markets, including a stint at Merrill Lynch, Lemon's insights are worth considering.
