These levels are formed by the candlesticks' highs and lows. A break-through of these levels after a period of consolidation gives a signal for a trend.

For EUR/USD I recommend: U.S. GDP, U.S. nonfarm payrolls, U.S. interest rate decisions, Eurozone interest rate decisions and U.S. budget deficit reports. Stop-loss for the Long position should be set around the 1-2 hour local minimum. Stop-loss for the Song position should be set around the 1-2 hour local maximum. The best way to know when to get into a trade or to get out of a trade is to understand the market signals. This means understanding the market, to a certain extent. You don't have to know it backwards and forwards, that will take trading time and experience. However, having a general market knowledge and knowing what signals to look for will help you to get on a trade quickly and will help you to get out of a trade in order to either maximize profits or minimize losses.
