Today's Guidance
Mark the Asian session high and low as fixed points for EUR/USD. Enter only after a candle on the 1-hour chart closes clearly beyond either point.
Alternative scenario
Non Farm Payrolls at 13:30 UK differs greatly from 56.0K and EUR/USD closes beyond the Asian session high or low.
Stop using the Asian session high and low until EUR/USD forms a new clear high and low after 13:30 UK.
Guidance — not a prediction. Today's plan may need to be reassessed if this trigger materialises.
