19.05.202006:30 Forex Analysis & Reviews: EUR/USD: plan for the European session on May 19. COT reports (analysis of yesterday's trade). Buyers and sellers are building up their positions. Bulls aim for breakout of 1.0923

To open long positions on EUR/USD, you need:

In yesterday's review, I advised you to buy the euro after a false breakout in the area of 1.0808, which happened, and the demand for EUR/USD sharply grew during the US session, which led to a fairly large upward correction. If you look at the 5 minute chart, then it was possible to open a long position in the euro after the breakout and then consolidate above the resistance 1.0849, which quickly brought the pair to the highs 1.0895 and 1.0923, where you can open short positions, as I also mentioned in my prediction for the second half of the day. The sharp rise in the euro may be directly related to the good news about the successful test of the coronavirus vaccine. The Commitment of Traders (COT) reports for May 12 recorded an increase in both short and long positions, but now the market is flocking to the side of buyers of the European currency, as the Delta has increased, which indicates some advantage for the bulls in the current conditions. Given that today there will be regular speeches by senior US officials, including the Finance Minister and the Federal Reserve chief, and they will be associated with possible new aid packages for the economy, demand for the euro could be sustained. The report shows an increase in short non-profit positions from the level of 92,973 to 93,840, while long non-profit positions also increased from the level of 169,272 to 171,980. As a result, the positive non-commercial net position increased slightly to 78,140, against 76,299, indicating an increase in interest in purchasing risky assets at current prices. As for the intraday strategy, buyers will focus on the resistance of 1.0923, since a break and consolidation at this level will lead to a continuation of the upward correction to the highs of 1.0972 and 1.1013, where I recommend taking profits. An important task will be to hold the 1.0886 area and form a false breakout on it, which will also be a signal to open long positions in the euro. The moving average test will be an additional point in this development of the situation. If there are no active purchases in the area of 1.0886 and growth does not resume, the bulls will doubt the seriousness of yesterday's momentum and retreat to the support area of 1.0855. It is best to open long positions immediately for a rebound from the low of 1.0808 while expecting a correction of 30-40 points within the day.

To open short positions on EUR/USD, you need:

Sellers will act quite accurately on a false breakdown in the resistance area of 1.0923, since any statements by the Fed chief on the topic of the possible allocation of aid can cause the euro to sharply strengthen. If pressure does not form after a false breakdown in the resistance area of 1.0923, it is best to postpone short positions until the test of larger highs 1.0972 and 1.1013 and open short positions therefrom immediately for a rebound while expecting a correction of 30-35 points within a day. An important task for the bears is to return EUR/USD to the support level of 1.0886, afterwards, it will be possible to talk about damping the bullish momentum and you can expect an update of lows to 1.0855 with the support test of 1.0808, where I recommend taking profit.
