22.10.201810:39 Forex Analysis & Reviews: EUR / USD: plan for the European session on October 22. Euro gradually return position

To open long positions on EUR / USD, you need:

For euro buyers, in order to maintain the upward trend, it is necessary to break and consolidate above the resistance level of 1.1535, which will allow us to expect continued growth, reaching last week's highs in the area of 1.1573 and 1.1605, where I recommend fixing the profits. The absence of important fundamental statistics today can allow the bulls to reach these levels. In the case of EUR / USD decline in the first half of the day, long positions can be returned on a false breakdown from 1.1510 or to rebound from a minimum of 1.1487.

To open short positions on EUR / USD, you need:

Euro sellers are required to form a false breakdown and return to Friday's resistance level of 1.1535, which will lead to renewed pressure on the euro and decrease in the area to support 1.1510. The main goal will be to update a larger level of 1.1487, where I recommend fixing the profits. In the case of growth above the resistance of 1.1535 in the first half of the day, you can sell the euro to rebound from a maximum of 1.1573.
