The H4 range for the next 5 to 6 hours or so... Watch 1.0409 area! No selling while above!

If the setup appears, short at 1.04250. Whatever the market gives, I will take.

Cheers!

1.04130 may turn into Resistance, needs big volume conformation. I giving more weightage to Geopolitics = USD strong.

looking at one last big move down before the eventual massive rally. Trump can always change that.
A very juicy target lies below. A triple bottom which means a lot of liquidity below that. Let's see.

{quote} This bad boy poked into the Range 0345 - 0406. We will be hanging in here for sometime. Play the range if opportunities show 0338 or even lower for range validation, 0345 could be the trigger. On the other hand 0407 could easy kiss and play back down to 0345
A little poke poke there 0345 or sub level 0311 anticipated. I wait the close and Asia for that to manifest. Meanwhile getting past 0383 will be tough. The day close is crucial atm. Trade well

{quote} Volume is one of the indicators that will help you
FX market is an OTC market; Difference between OTC market and Exchanges is you don't know at what prices and volumes counterparties have traded.
Companies like Refinitiv tries to aggregate most of the important players from the global network players. Reuters (Thomson Reuters Matching) & Bloomberg (Bloomberg FXGO) retain some big percentages of spot FX trading on some of the major trading pairs; but than again all of these major players ( https://www.newyorkfed.org/fxc/fx-volume-survey - Reporting Dealers) , individually trade with multiple counterparties among others with primes brokers, interbank dealers, hedge funds , regional and small banks , etc which in turn in order to mitigate their risk on top of the original trade they hedge part of the traded volume into spot FX , forward markets and futures and additionally they create artificially more liquidity on each price level through trading spreads between high correlation products in order to sell these liquidity down the chain-link and in use it in between them.

Except the fact that the FX market is OTC the bidding way in interbank market is built in survey mode where counterparties are willing to trade. As an example if before NFP EURUSD is 1.0310 05 with 1.0311 01 it means where the counterparties in that particular network from where you receive the feed are willing to trade.
IF less than 1 to 2 seconds max away after NFP print, the EURUSD price is 1.0277 01 with 1.0277 02 it does not mean that one or multiple traders made trades and cleared all the price levels in between but rather that all the counterparties disseminated the news and trying to price in the new numbers, at 1.0277 02 are willing to sell to you EURUSD.

So please let me know did the volume indicator added value into your trading strategies ?

Bad EUR data all day, Strong USD data yet price isn't sinking. I knew EUR/USD was manipulated but they don't even try to hide it anymore. Clearly they know something we don't. Overbought on the 1HR TF but can't see no big shift in momentum with gap filled. I'd expect some tweets or something big from trump to move it to his direction
Can you please expand a little bit on why you think EURUSD is manipulated ?!

Good setup? {image}
Depending on how big your trading account is and how decent you get charged on swaps whatever is above 1.00 short to medium term, anything else than what we know so far not being taken into consideration, I guess is a good price. In the end 10 years are hovering at 4.5 and market is pricing FED from 4 cuts end of last year into 1 barely 2 while ECB just cut and looking to cut more even last numbers on inflations where a little bit sticky.

At least these is what main stream media is selling and please don't forget : "Markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent,"
These is not an advice to sell or buy EURUSD but rather for educational purposes only.

EUR/USD is the most traded currency pair in the forex market, which means it has the highest liquidity. Making it the main target for price manipulation because of the profit potential. Market movers, like big banks and hedge funds, frequently engage in stop-hunting on this pair more than any other. What looks like a rising trend to retail traders is often just these players triggering stop-losses, wiping out smaller traders, and using algo bots to create artificial volatility. This kind of manipulation misleads traders and distracts them from the bigger picture. You have to remember they have access to info before it is released to the public via insiders. Retail have no control in the movement or narrative.

Doesn't this means is the hardest to be manipulated? For news access I would just call it an advantage bt for this day and age where internet is cheap pretty much we get the news not too far behind maybe few sec diff.

Acting directly on insider information before it's public would raise red flags and lead to investigations for insider trading. To avoid this, these movers manipulate the price indirectly by creating artificial movements, setting themselves up for larger profits when the news drops and they can legally execute their trades. That's why sometimes when u look at the charts just before big news data the price almost always moves in the opposite direction to a point where its oversold/bought just before and then will move completely the other direction. Try and pay attention next time big information comes out and watch the price movement to the lead up to the data release.

No because that means more players are involved leading to more chances of corruption and manipulation. If you're really interested look into the Forex Scandal in 2013. Where all the big banks got caught and fined for their involvement.
