To open long positions on EUR/USD:

The EUR/USD pair slightly changed amid the eurozone composite PMI for February and retail sales data. Sellers are expected to open deals from the level of 1.1190. Euro buyers are targeted to keep the price above the support level of 1.1142. At the moment, there is no activity in this area. As a result, the pair can fall further. Major players are likely to enter the market after the price reaches the lows of 1.1097 and 1.1041. The ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI for the US is expected later today. If the activity is weak, the EUR/USD pair is likely to rise to the resistance level of 1.1190. It is preferable to take profit if the pair reaches the highs of 1.1239 and 1.1263.

To open short positions on EUR/USD:

Sellers were active from the level of 1.1190. This is the level that I was talking about earlier. Bears are targeted to maintain the price lower the support level of 1.1142. The price has almost reached the target. The EUR/USD pair is expected to fall, break through the lower border of the current ascending channel, and test the lows of 1.1097 and 1.1041. This is the level where you can take profit. If the euro reaches the morning high of 1.1190, it is preferable to open Short positions when the pair gets to the resistance level of 1.1239. However, it is better to sell the EUR/USD pair on the rebound from a high of 1.1263.
