Euro/Dollar long trade walkthrough

  • The Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) numbers can out worse than expected and the euro/dollar spiked up.
  • Mark the range high (1.3217)
  • Wait for a small pullback (low @ 1.3193)
  • Conservative traders would buy the euro/dollar 1 pip above the range high @ 1.3218 with stop loss 1 pip below the range low @ 1.3192.
  • Aggressive traders would buy the euro/dollar near the rising trendline with stop loss 1 pip below the range low @ 1.3192.
  • Profit objective is twice the risk taken (26 pips for conservative traders) or any other method you like.
