24.02.202607:07 Forex Analysis & Reviews: What to Pay Attention to on February 24? Analysis of Fundamental Events for Beginners

Analysis of Macroeconomic Reports:

There are very few macroeconomic reports scheduled for Tuesday. Essentially, the only noteworthy event is the weekly ADP report on the U.S. labor market, which has recently been published in two versions. Even the monthly ADP report is regularly ignored by the market due to its low accuracy and frequent discrepancies with the NonFarm Payrolls (NFP). Thus, the weekly report is not valuable. In Germany and the European Union, the events calendar is empty today.

Analysis of Fundamental Events:

Among the fundamental events on Tuesday, a few speeches by representatives of the ECB and the Fed stand out; however, both central banks currently maintain a clear and firm stance on monetary policy. The ECB is not concerned about the slowdown in inflation to 1.7% year-on-year, so a reduction in the key rate is not planned in the near future. The Fed, on the other hand, is wary of inflation at 2.4%, considering it is elevated, and does not plan to implement new monetary easing soon. Therefore, new speeches from ECB and Fed representatives are unlikely to provide the market with any new or important information.

General Conclusions:

On the second trading day of the week, very weak movements may be observed in the market, as Monday showed that traders were not at all shocked by the Supreme Court's ruling and Donald Trump's immediate reinstatement of all tariffs. The euro can be traded today in the range of 1.1745-1.1754, while the British pound can be traded in the range of 1.3484-1.3489. We still see no grounds for strong, sustained growth in the American currency, but both pairs continue to lean towards decline.

Main Rules of the Trading System:

1. The strength of the signal is determined by the time it takes to form (rebound or breaking through the level). The shorter the time, the stronger the signal.
2. If two or more trades were opened around a particular level based on false signals, all subsequent signals from that level should be ignored.
3. In a flat market, any pair can generate numerous false signals or no signals at all. In any case, it is best to stop trading at the first signs of a flat.
4. Trades are opened during the time period between the start of the European session and until the middle of the American session, after which all trades should be manually closed.
5. On the hourly timeframe, signals from the MACD indicator should ideally be traded only when there is good volatility and a trend confirmed by a trend line or channel.
6. If two levels are too close to each other (ranging from 5 to 20 pips), they should be considered as a support or resistance area.
7. After moving 15-20 pips in the correct direction, it is advisable to set the Stop Loss to break-even.

What's on the Charts:

• Support and resistance levels are targets for opening buy or sell trades. Take Profit levels can be placed around them.
• Red lines indicate channels or trend lines that reflect the current trend and indicate the preferred direction for trading now.
• The MACD indicator (14,22,3) – the histogram and signal line – serves as a supplementary indicator that can also be used as a source of signals.
• Important speeches and reports (always found in the news calendar) can significantly influence the movement of the currency pair. Therefore, during their release, trading should be conducted with maximum caution, or it is advised to exit the market to avoid a sharp price reversal against the preceding movement.
• Beginners trading in the Forex market should remember that not every trade can be profitable. Developing a clear strategy and practicing sound money management are the keys to long-term trading success.
