OANDA:XAGUSD extends the previous day's rejection slide from the very important 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) and continues losing ground for the second successive day on Tuesday. The downward trajectory picks up pace during the early part of the European session and drags the white metal to a two-day low, around the $22.75-$22.70 region in the last...

FX:EURUSD losses ground for the second successive day, trading lower near 1.0710 aligned with the psychological support level at 1.0700 during the Asian session on Tuesday. A firm break below the latter could inspire the bears of the EUR/USD pair to navigate the support region around the mid 1.0600 and the 14-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at the 1.0631...

The FX:GBPJPY is seeing a mild relief pullback towards the 185.00 price level after last week's runup in the pair sent the Guppy just shy of the 186.00 handle. Monday's pullback sees the pair testing back towards the 50-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA) currently rising into 184.60. Intraday price action is getting snarled on the 21-hour Exponential Moving...

TVC:DXY accelerates its losses to new multi-week lows near 104.80 on Monday. The continuation of the selling impulse appears likely in the very near term. That said, the next support is expected to turn up at the weekly low of 104.42 (September 11), ahead of the temporary 100-day SMA at 103.98. So far, while above the key 200-day SMA, today at 103.51, the...

OANDA:XAUUSD has been stuck in a consolidation around the key 1985 level for almost two weeks as the market got a bit overstretched following the Israel-Hamas war outbreak. The geopolitical risk seems to be waning as we haven’t seen any bigger escalation and the Hezbollah leader even distanced himself from the terrorist operation in Gaza. On the macro side, real...

The last week was incredible for the TVC:SPX with the index rallying for five consecutive trading days. The bulk of the rally came after the FOMC rate decision where the Fed left interest rates unchanged and Fed Chair Powell delivered less hawkish than expected remarks. The S&P 500 then extended the gains into the weekend after the NFP report missed forecasts...

The OANDA:XAUUSD bid into an intraday high just shy of $2,005 on Friday following the worst read on US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) in almost 3 years, but Gold bids recovered to the midrange of the day's trading to finish up near $1,992.50. The US NFP report missed expectations, showing the US added only 150 thousand jobs in October compared to September's bumper...

On the daily chart, we can see that the FX:USDJPY pair shoot higher following the disappointing BoJ policy decision and came close to touch the cycle high around the 152.00 handle. The price since then started to roll over as Treasury yields continued to fall following weaker US data. We can also notice that the price continues to diverge with the MACD, which is...

On the daily chart, we can see that the FX:USDCAD has been diverging with the MACD trading into the key 1.3862 resistance. This is generally a sign of weakening momentum often followed by pullbacks or reversals. In this case, the price sold off and it even broke below the bottom trendline. This is a bad omen for the buyers as it opened the door for a bigger drop...

On the daily chart, we can see that the FX:GBPUSD pair is currently breaking out of the trendline. The buyers are likely to pile in with a defined risk below the most recent low and target the 1.23 resistance. The sellers, on the other hand, are likely to wait around the 1.23 handle to step in with a defined risk above it and position for a drop into the 1.1840 level.
