Forex Trading Tips And Strategies For The Week of July 15-31, 2023

Here are some forex trading tips and strategies for the week of July 15-31, 2023: Pay attention to economic data. There are a number of important economic releases scheduled for this week, including the US non-farm payrolls report on July 15, the European Central Bank (ECB) monetary policy meeting on July 21, and the US unemployment rate report on July 28. These releases can have a significant impact on currency markets, so it's important to be aware of them and factor them into your trading decisions. Trade with the trend. This is a basic but important trading principle. When the trend is up, look to buy. When the trend is down, look to sell. Trying to trade against the trend is usually a recipe for failure.

The same crowds briefly turned net-long USD as the pair fell through mid-June, but they’ve since returned to their bearish position.

EUR/USD ends Lower this week

EUR/USD settles around 1.4230/50 as a highly volatile week comes to an end. The pair swung erratically throughout the week as news and fundamental data hit the markets among which are worth noting, rumors about a downgrade to France, a collapse on the stock markets and a temporary short-selling ban on financial shares imposed by some European countries, zero rates in the US until mid-2013 and ECB intervention on the bond markets. On this backdrop, EUR/USD moved between a high of 1.4425 at the opening and a low of 1.4103 on Thursday, where the aftermath has left the Euro around 1.4240 on track for a third consecutive weekly loss versus the Greenback, this time for 1.28%. Regarding next week forecast, Ilian Yotov , FX strategist at AllThingsForex, said, "The EUR keeps fluctuating within its range, but could attempt to break above it on QE3 expectations, or below it if the EU debt crisis continues to rattle the single currency."
