Today's Guidance
Mark the Asian session high and low, then watch how EUR/USD behaves around them after 08:00 UK. Around 11:00, 12:30 and 13:30, wait until candles become smaller and respect the most recent 1-hour high or low.
Alternative scenario
A candle on the 1-hour chart closes outside the Asian session high or low from 13:50, and following candles stay outside.
Stop trading back toward the Asian session area; consider entries only in the direction shown by those 1-hour candles.
Guidance — not a prediction. Today's plan may need to be reassessed if this trigger materialises.
