EUR/AUD looks heavy and vulnerable to downside following Friday’s bearish engulfing candle, leaving the price teetering just above 1.7184—the blow-off top high from August last year. A break below 1.7184 could encourage bears off the sidelines, creating a setup where shorts may be established beneath the level with stops above for protection. EUR/AUD has tended...

GBP/USD came very close to a 1.3000 test last week but fell a bit short. To be sure, the bullish breakout in Cable lacks in size and scope to that of the Euro, but with an oversold US Dollar showing potential for pullback, that highlights the possibility of pullbacks in GBP/USD and EUR/USD, as well. In Cable, there's a couple of clear spots of support potential,...
EUR/USD strength continued through the early part of the week, but a big level came into play that ended up holding the high at 1.0943. That's the 50% mark of the 2021-2022 major move, and it's related to the 1.0200 level that came in to hold support in February, leading to a stall in the sell-off that month that pushed into a bullish breakout in March. Bulls...

The price has rebounded +5.44%, climbing back toward the $85,000 level, but remains below the 50-day SMA (94,968), which has acted as dynamic resistance. Despite today's bounce, BTC remains in a broader downtrend, with both the MACD and RSI showing...

Ahead of the UoM consumer sentiment data, the US dollar remains on the backfoot, after this week's weaker inflation data and last week’s sharp decline. The EUR/USD has been among the strongest currencies out there, driven largely by Germany’s ambitious spending plans. Chancellor-in-waiting Friedrich Merz is racing against time to persuade parliament to approve a...
The strong bearish trend for USD/CHF stalled this week, with buying support emerging beneath .8774, continuing the pattern seen in December. The net result has been a grind higher before running into resistance at .8854, forming what resembles a bear flag on the charts.

Gold finally ended weeks of consolidation to break to new record highs today. It is now looking increasingly likely to reach and potentially surpass the $3,000 level in the coming days.

ASX 200 SPI futures are so oversold on the daily timeframe that you can’t help but notice, especially when looking back over recent years. The only time an RSI reading this low didn’t spark some form of bounce was during the height of the pandemic panic in early 2020. But being oversold alone isn’t enough to trade against the prevailing strong bearish trend,...
Over the last six trading sessions, the USD/MXN price has dropped more than 3.5% as the Mexican peso has regained ground lost due to the ongoing conflict between Mexico and the White House. For now, the bearish bias has been driven by the March 6th extension on the tariff imposition, which gave the Mexican government a reprieve until April 2nd. This has allowed...

Coming on the back of last week’s disintegration of the 200DMA—and with valuations still stretched relative to historic averages while competition in the AI...
