The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal†is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
EUR/USD Analysis
This pair has fallen from the resistance level identified at the psychological number of 1.1250, and the drop looks strong enough to suggest the price will fall further, almost certainly into the supportive zone nearby. After such a long bullish move consisting of hundreds of pips, a deep pull back is natural and does not suggest the end of the bullish trend.
There is a long-term strongly bullish trend and I maintain a bullish bias. However, there is key U.S. data due later which may surprise the market and lead to a sharp move in the price of this instrument in any direction.
Concerning the EUR, the President of the ECB will be speaking at a conference at 1:45pm London time. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Crude Oil Inventories data at 3:30pm followed by the FOMC Meeting Minutes at 7pm.
