EURUSD 15m

EUR/USD – 15m Time Frame Analysis | April 20, 2025

On the 15-minute chart, we observe compression just below the Daily Order Block (D OB), along with a clean BOS and minor liquidity sweeps. This kind of structure often precedes significant moves and provides refined entry opportunities for intraday trades.

The market may induce early shorts or sweep minor lows before shifting structure bullishly. Look for:

  • Short-term liquidity grab (e.g., sweep of a previous low)
  • BOS on the 1m–5m for confirmation
  • Entry with tight SL and RR targeting the break of the D OB

Scalping Plan:

  • Bias: Bullish (with micro confirmation)
  • Entry Zone: Below D OB (post-sweep / inducement)
  • Trigger: BOS + fair value gap / breaker
