Current market quotes

Short outlook by currency pair

XAUUSD

Central banks continue large-scale gold purchases, providing structural support. Technical setups show gold consolidating in a triangle pattern. Gold posted a weekly loss of 2.72%.

EURUSD

EURUSD remains under pressure from weak Eurozone sentiment and persistent USD strength. The pair is weak, testing the 1.1500 support today. A break below it would confirm further selling. The pair declined 0.98% this week.

USDJPY

USDJPY is one of the strongest USD pairs at the moment. It almost reached the 158.00 resistance and now consolidates at the 156.800 level. As long as 156.00 holds, the uptrend remains intact. USDJPY posted a 1.50% weekly gain.

BTCUSD

Still in red and counting. Crypto sentiment has generally weakened: risk-off across the markets, along with a broad sell-off. BTCUSD is trading within a descending channel with heavy resistance overhead. Caution is advised until the price reclaims the strong resistance level. -13.5% was the pair’s result after 5 trading days.

Market sentiment

The global sentiment is tilted “risk-off” after recent macro data. USD is strong, with the euro under pressure and bitcoin facing downward risk. Gold is supported but not aggressively bullish, a hedge asset with limited current upside.
