Yesterday’s signals may have triggered a long trade from the support at 1.1372 which would be in floating profit now. It would probably be wise to take more profit now to ensure there is no risk left in the trade.

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
We have seen the price make a short-term U-shaped bottom at the support level of 1.1372, from where it is now beginning to rise against the long and medium-term bearish trends. The price is now close to the resistance level at 1.1433 which looks likely to be the pivotal level for today. I will be bearish today below 1.1433 if the price keeps failing to rise above during the early hours of the London session.
There is nothing important due today concerning either the EUR or the USD.
