What is the data's extent? Or, what area are you interested in? If you have ArcGIS Desktop, look in the documentation folder and open the geographic_transformations.pdf file. Or it's here online:

Don't worry about the direction of a transformation. Generally, transformation convert from a older or local geographic coordinate system to a newer or more general coordinate system. Currently, all transformation can be applied in either direction and the software will handle it for you.

Thanks Melita

My area is in Italy so I decided to use ED_1950_To_WGS_1984_1

Thank you again,
