Today's Outlook

Patient Event Trading Day

EUR has ECB's Elderson Speaks at 10:30 UK and ECB President Lagarde Speaks at 14:30 UK, so EUR/JPY may move sharply around those times. Wait for sudden price changes to settle, and avoid entering simply because price jumps.

Today's Guidance

Mark the London session high and low on EUR/JPY. Enter only after a candle on the 1-hour chart closes clearly beyond either price or turns away from one of them.

Today's guidance illustration

Alternative scenario

If

At 14:30 UK, ECB President Lagarde Speaks. Change the plan if EUR/JPY closes beyond the London session high or low.

Then

Stop using the earlier London session prices for entries. Wait for a new high and low to form before planning another trade.

Guidance — not a prediction. Today's plan may need to be reassessed if this trigger materialises.
