Short outlook by currency pair
XAUUSD
Gold traded inactively, consolidating near the $4,070 level. Its outlook is range-bound to slightly bearish unless a fresh risk event lifts safe-haven demand.
EURUSD
EURUSD is neutral to modestly bullish, but upside is limited until the US dollar weakens or a euro-positive surprise emerges.
USDJPY
Tomorrow, the Japanese Prime Minister will meet the BoJ Governor. The officials hold opposing points of view - whilst the central bank’s chief signalled the chance of the rate hike, the Head of the Government remains unhappy with that outlook. The bias for USDJPY is moderately bullish, but watch for intervention risk or surprise from the BoJ.
BTCUSD
Bitcoin is still trading downward (broke below the $94,000 support) and is likely to remain bearish in the short term.
Market sentiment
The market tone is risk-aware. The US dollar holds up, which means the non-USD assets face headwinds unless they have their own positive drivers. Big US data releases are way ahead this week; the releases will have a direct impact on the Fed’s December rate decision.
