Weekly Galileo FX Market Analysis & Settings

[Sanchay]

I’ll be sharing my progress in discovering effective settings for Galileo FX here. You’re welcome to try these settings as well, but always experiment by adjusting the values—such as Take Profit (TP), Stop Loss (SL), Consecutive Bullish Signals, and Consecutive Bearish Signals. You can adjust each of these parameters slightly up or down based on your comfort level.

Hello community members,

This week we saw an increase in headline inflation. Month-on-month it increased by 0.4%, and year-on-year it increased by 2.9%. For the core CPI data, which excludes food and energy, we observed a 0.3% month-on-month increase and a 3.15% year-on-year increase.

There is also an upcoming FOMC meeting on 16–17 September 2025, and there is a 90% probability of a 25 bps rate cut (as per Reuters: link).

This setting remains relevant based on the information, as it supports a slightly neutral perspective of the market as well as it ensures not to trigger many trades because of High consecutive signal count. It should not be used during the release of the information as the GBPUSD might get volatile at that time.

Based on all of this, it is highly likely that the USD will have a negative sentiment next week. I have done backtesting on Galileo FX and found a performance page setting that might work well for GBPUSD.

I’m sharing the settings and the backtest results in the attached zip file:

Thanks for sharing this, solid timing with CPI and FOMC ahead

Quick q’s:

1. In your backtest how did it hold up during news spikes??
2. Do you keep GBPUSD configs running all the time or just around macro weeks?
3. With USD bias looking weak, would you hedge with another pair or stick to one setup.

Awesome questions, here are your answers:
1. The Galileo FX is already programmed to handle these spikes. But we ensure that we use a higher count of Consecutive Bullish/Bearish Signals to ensure that no false trade is triggered accidentally because of high volatility.
2. There is no thumb rule for GBPUSD, during these announcements or high impact financial events its always good to have a plan. This week i figured GBPUSD could be better bet, so I focused on this.
3. I can not share my trading advice or opinion because it may effect your decision and this is not a financial advise, just trying to help with Galileo FX.

Hello community members,

This week is very important for USD because of the FOMC meeting on 16-17 September. It will affect the USD dominance globally and hence we are already seeing spikes in GOLD and Crude.
I believe EURUSD can also be a valid currency pair to look for trades, mainly because:

1. Euro area inflation: Flash HICP 2.1% y/y in Aug (up from 2.0%). That’s near target over the medium term and removes urgency in the near term for ECB easing.
2. ECB (Sep 11): ECB has held rates steady, keeping its deposit facility rate at 2.00%. Its guidance remains data-dependent and meeting-by-meeting, with no commitment to a fixed rate path ahead. This stance suggests the policy gap with the U.S. could narrow if the Fed follows through with an easing move.
3. U.S. inflation: CPI +0.4% m/m, +2.9% y/y; core +0.3% m/m, +3.1% y/y (Aug)—sticky but not re-accelerating.
4. Fed set-up (Sep 16–17): Futures price a ~90% chance of a 25 bp cut; reaction hinges on dots + Powell (hawkish vs balanced).

What is moving EURUSD in upcoming week?

• EURO inflation, near target making ECB patient
• ECB has clear stance for now to HOLD rates
• US CPI pointed out increase

Ahead of FOMC. EURUSD may see a slight bullish sentiment. While browsing through performance page I found this strategy: https://store.galileofx.com/pages/performance/settings?name=zero-g-momentum-nexus



This setting benefits when EURO is bullish or stronger against USD. It relies on identifying bullish signals faster than bearish signals. If we see a Hawkish cut by FOMC then I will not trade using the same settings.

Have a great day!
