## Inflation gave no answer
Last week's inflation numbers landed without setting a direction for EURUSD. So the trader sits out rather than guessing which way the pair breaks.

> Since inflation numbers last week have not given any clear direction yet it's still a waiting game for myself.
## Two scenarios, not one call
Instead of a single prediction, the setup is split into two branches. Each one hangs on whether the 4-hour bullish orderflow holds.

> I see 2 scenario's playing out
## Bulls hold the 4h flow
In the first branch, price respects the bullish orderflow currently in control on the 4-hour chart. That keeps buyers in the driver's seat.

> Price respects the current 4h bullish orderflow in control
## Break the high, run higher
Confirmation comes from clearing the fractal high and the monthly open level. Take both and price gets one more push toward the highs.

> breaks the fractal high + monthly open level and we trade price towards the highs one last time
## Or the flow breaks down
In the second branch, price breaks that 4-hour bullish orderflow. The break leaves a fresh supply zone overhead where sellers take over.

> which will create a new supply zone
## Target sits at 1.15005
If sellers win, the draw is the major daily liquidity pool at 1.15005. That level is the downside magnet worth watching.

> we trade price lower towards the major daily liquidity laying at 1.15005
## Key takeaway

When the data gives no direction, don't force a trade. Define both scenarios, mark the levels, and let price choose.
