Today, only the euro was traded using the Mean Reversion strategy. I did not take any trades using Momentum.

Next, data on the U.S. University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index and inflation expectations are expected. In addition, the market will monitor developments in the geopolitical situation in the Middle East. If the data comes in strong, demand for the dollar will quickly return.

It is worth noting that the above macroeconomic indicators have a significant impact on the dynamics of the U.S. currency. Consumer sentiment reflects Americans' confidence in the economy, their willingness to spend, and consequently to stimulate economic growth. High index readings typically indicate stability and positive expectations, which in turn support demand for dollar-denominated assets. At the same time, inflation expectations play an equally important role. If consumers expect rising prices, this may prompt the Federal Reserve to tighten monetary policy, including raising interest rates.

If the data is strong, I will rely on the Momentum strategy. If there is no market reaction to the data, I will continue using the Mean Reversion strategy.
