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

The action looks less bullish than it did yesterday, and the price is now very inactive and just going sideways. However, the general bullish structure of higher lows has not been broken. A period of wide-ranging consolidation roughly between 1.0620 and 1.0500 looks to be the most likely short-term prospect.EURUSD

There is nothing due today regarding the EUR. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of Crude Oil Inventories data at 3:30pm London time.
