The EUR/USD currency pair had an interesting and, most importantly, entertaining trading session on Tuesday. It was not just the movements of the euro or the dollar that were entertaining; the geopolitical backdrop was also quite lively. As we have pointed out many times, the geopolitical situation can change about five times a day. The market sometimes ignores certain news, but in other cases, traders cannot control their emotions, leading to market "swings." On Tuesday morning, Donald Trump once again stated that a deal with Iran is close to being signed, and by the evening, it became known that Iran had shot down an American helicopter patrolling the Strait of Hormuz. Shortly after, Trump stated that this act of aggression would not go unanswered. Essentially, this sums up what we need to know about Trump's deal, which has been "on the verge of being signed" for the past two months. It is not surprising that the dollar fell in the first half of the day and rose in the second. The downward trend persists, as there is no sign of a peace deal between Iran and the U.S. The market continues to ignore most fundamental and macroeconomic events.
On the 5-minute timeframe on Tuesday, two buy trading signals were formed. During the Asian trading session, the pair bounced off the 1.1527-1.1531 area and rose toward 1.1584-1.1594. It fell just a few pips short of hitting that target. During the American session, the pair returned to the 1.1527-1.1531 area and bounced again.
On the hourly timeframe, the range has ended, and the downward trend has resumed after three weeks of stagnation, but further growth of the American currency will depend entirely on developments in geopolitical events. Trump continues to promise that a deal with Iran will be finalized soon. If this happens, the dollar will start losing positions.
On Wednesday, novice traders may open short positions targeting 1.1455-1.1474 if the price breaks below the 1.1527-1.1531 area. Long positions can be considered on a bounce from the 1.1527-1.1531 area, with targets of 1.1584-1.1594.
On the 5-minute timeframe, levels to consider are 1.1354-1.1363, 1.1413, 1.1455-1.1474, 1.1527-1.1531, 1.1584-1.1594, 1.1655-1.1666, 1.1745-1.1754, 1.1830-1.1837, 1.1899-1.1908. On Wednesday, we can expect the U.S. May inflation report, but the fate of the EUR/USD pair will again be determined by geopolitics. For instance, the U.S. may deliver a "retaliation strike" for the downed helicopter today, which would signify another violation of the ceasefire and a potential collapse of negotiations.
Price levels (areas) of support and resistance are targets when opening long or short positions or sources of signals.
Red lines indicate channels or trend lines that display the current trend and indicate the preferred direction for trading.
The MACD indicator (14,22,3) – histogram and signal line – is a supplementary indicator that can also be used as a source of signals.
Important speeches and reports (contained in the news calendar) can significantly impact the movement of the currency pair. Therefore, during their release, trading should be conducted with maximum caution, or one should exit the market to avoid sharp reversals against preceding movements.
