25.11.202513:18 Analisis Forex & Kajian: Level and Target Adjustments for the U.S. Session – November 25th

Only the British pound did I try to trade today using the Mean Reversion strategy, but even there I did not wait for a strong downward reversal. Using the Momentum strategy, I traded the Japanese yen, which rose sharply against the U.S. dollar.

According to the report, Germany's GDP in the third quarter of this year remained unchanged compared to the second quarter. Although zero growth has increased the chances of a technical recession, the sense of industrial stagnation is causing more serious concern. Economists warn that without significant changes in policy and external factors, Germany may face a prolonged period of economic decline. The impact of this downturn may spread far beyond Germany's borders, affecting the entire European economy and global markets.

Later today we expect data on the U.S. Producer Price Index for September of this year, changes in retail sales volumes, and the Richmond Fed manufacturing index. These data will provide important information about the health of the American economy and will therefore have a noticeable impact on market sentiment. The Producer Price Index is a key indicator of inflationary pressure, reflecting changes in the prices producers receive for their goods. Higher-than-expected PPI readings may signal further price increases, which could in turn encourage the Federal Reserve to return to a wait-and-see stance.

Changes in retail sales, on the other hand, reflect consumer spending, which accounts for a significant share of U.S. GDP. Steady growth in retail sales indicates a strong economy, whereas a decline may indicate weakening consumer demand, which would put pressure on the dollar. Finally, the Richmond Fed manufacturing index is a regional economic indicator that evaluates conditions in the manufacturing sector. Although it does not have the same broad coverage as national data, it can still provide valuable insight into the state of U.S. manufacturing.

In the case of strong statistics, I will rely on implementing the Momentum strategy. If the market does not react to the data, I will continue using the Mean Reversion strategy.
