Financial Analyst
James Stanley, FOREX.com Senior Strategist, explains how traders use Fibonacci analysis to find key levels in EUR/USD price action.
Stanley illustrates how Fibonacci retracement levels continue to help traders identify support and resistance zones in Eurodollar trading. By referencing major directional moves on the chart, he shows how these levels have repeatedly aligned with key turning points in the market.
He highlights the value of observing price action reactions, such as reversal candlesticks and intraday wicks, to validate these areas. Stanley also notes that additional retracement levels, though not mathematically derived from the Fibonacci sequence, are still widely used by traders to spot potential inflection points. As market conditions evolve, he explains how traders can adjust their bias depending on reactions around these areas, using them as a framework to manage risk and structure trades more effectively.

Our subscribers have access to comprehensive market analysis from StoneX spanning commodities, equities, currencies and more.
Payrolls and CPI arrive back to back, giving the U.S. dollar index a two-step test of Federal Reserve rate hike expectations. Labor data sets the first read, and the inflation update tests how well that read holds.
Eurozone headline inflation is climbing while core inflation holds steady, keeping concern about rising prices alive. Yet the euro is recovering against the dollar mainly because the U.S. dollar is weakening, not because of the inflation data.
The British pound is drawing buying interest into the Bank of England decision while the U.S. dollar trades unevenly across the majors. That bid gives sterling its own driver and sets it apart from a euro that has stalled near resistance.
