Intraday Strategies for Beginner Traders on September 10

[Redator]

The US dollar has actively regained some of the positions it lost at the beginning of the week.

This indicates that traders are taking a wait-and-see approach ahead of important fundamental data. It is clear that the market is influenced by a range of factors that could, in the long term, exert significant pressure on the US currency. Chief among these is the ongoing debate about the future monetary policy of the Federal Reserve. Despite inflation showing signs of rising, the Fed is set to lower interest rates at the upcoming meeting in September of this year. Much will depend on today's US inflation data, which we will discuss in more detail later on.

During the European session, focus should be on the data concerning Italy's industrial production. These figures will set the tone for the upcoming trade in the European currency market. Against the backdrop of sluggish economic activity in the eurozone, any hints of a revival in Italian industry could provide a breath of fresh air for the euro, supporting its weakened position against the US dollar. Weak numbers, on the contrary, will heighten fears of recession in the region, undermine investor confidence in the European currency, and provoke its decline.

If the data matches economists' expectations, it is best to act based on the Mean Reversion strategy. If the data turns out to be much higher or lower than economists' expectations, it is best to use the Momentum strategy.
