Analysis of Trading Charts from December 6

The EUR/USD currency pair not only stabilized its price below the 1.0800 level but also managed to prolong the existing corrective cycle in the market.

The technical picture for the GBP/USD currency pair is similar. During the corrective movement from the 1.2700 resistance level, a path of almost 200 points was covered, signaling the pound's oversold condition in the intraday period.

Economic Calendar for December 7

Today, the publication of GDP data for the EU is expected, but these indicators may generate little interest as it concerns the third estimate, which is likely to confirm the previous two. The market has already factored in this data, but if they deviate from forecasts, it could lead to speculative price fluctuations.

In the United States, weekly data on jobless claims will be published, and an overall reduction in this indicator is expected. According to statistical data, the volume of continuing claims for benefits may fall from 1.927 million to 1.910 million, while the volume of initial claims may rise from 218,000 to 222,000.

EUR/USD Trading Plan for December 7

Despite the technical signal of oversold conditions, the euro continues to decline in value, indicating sustained inertia-speculative interest from market participants. In case of further depreciation of the euro, a phased movement towards the 1.0700 level is possible. However, it is important to note that ignoring the technical oversold signal could ultimately lead to the closure of short positions on the euro, triggering an intense price rebound.

GBP/USD Trading Plan for December 7

With further inertia-driven decline, there is a possibility of movement towards the support level of 1.2500, around which a reduction in the volume of short positions may occur.
