Analysis of Trading Charts from September 18

The EUR/USD currency pair slightly strengthened during the price pullback, but no radical changes occurred.

The GBP/USD pair formed a stagnation zone near the base of the downward trend. This price move indicated traders' prevailing interest in short positions, despite the clear oversold signal for the pound sterling.

Economic Calendar for September 19

Today, data on inflation in the EU is expected to be published. However, since these are final figures, market reaction is unlikely unless they deviate significantly from the preliminary estimate.

EUR/USD Trading Plan for September 19

To initiate the primary stage of the euro's recovery, it is necessary to first ensure that the price remains above the level of 1.0700. In that case, there is a potential for strengthening long-term positions with a target of reaching the level of 1.0750.

Regarding a more negative scenario, for the continuation of the current decline, it is sufficient for the price to remain below the level of 1.0650, which would increase the chances for sellers of further decline.

GBP/USD Trading Plan for September 19

The current period of stagnation may serve as a temporary pause for regrouping forces in the market, and speculative price movements may occur after its completion. In case of further decline, sellers should pay attention to the support level in the range of 1.2300/1.2350, within which a reduction in short positions may occur. This could lead to a partial recovery of the pound's exchange rate.

However, a technical signal for the continuation of the downward cycle, along with signs of changes in medium-term interests, may emerge if the price remains below the level of 1.2300 during the daily period.
