11 Weekly Trades: EUR/USD, CHF/JPY, NOK, SEK, EUR/JPY, GBP/NZD, GBP/AUD, GBP/ZAR, USD/CHF, EUR/AUD, CHF/JPY

This week's trades are again based on solicitations and the 11 currency pairs are as follows: CHF/JPY, GBP/NZD, GBP/AUD, GBP/ZAR, USD/NOK, USD/SEK, USD/CHF, EUR/USD, EUR/JPY, EUR/AUD, EUR/NZD.

Normally, EUR/USD lacks trade consideration due to the ECB's new STR interest rate introduced last October and result to 100 pip EUR weekly ranges. Same status to  50 and 100 pip weekly movements for USD/CHF but USD/CHF overall remains its normal dead range currency. USD/CHF should and eventually will trade a 1.000 handle.

USD/NOK, USD/SEK and GBP/ZAR contain miles upon miles of downside as all trade at the top of a 20 year range and all medium to long term are far, far overbought. Sell strategies is the way for many months in the future until at least 2000 pip targets achieve destination. USD/NOK at 9.0000's should trade an 8.000 exchange rate, lower 9.0000's for USD/SEK and GBP/ZAR from 19.0000's should trade to 18.0000's.

Good weekly trade choice for CHF/JPY as it begins the week in deep overbought against a 200 pip downside target. CHF/JPY is the exact same pair as USD/JPY which means its a USD currency. USD/JPY is massively overbought and complies to overbought CHF/JPY.

For EUR/JPY nothing special this week and this applies to all JPY cross pairs although GBP/JPY is a special currency pair in its own category within the JPY cross pair lineup. Lower this week for USD/JPY, CHF/JPY and JPY cross pairs.

EUR/AUD and GBP/AUD overall contains much downside not only from GBP but against deeply oversold AUD. Higher AUD will assist EUR/AUD and GBP/AUD downside. EUR/AUD however has been and may always remain a sell strategy as 1.5900 target awaits.

EUR/NZD was in full compliance mode to last week's 300 pips and straight up. EUR/NZD forced higher in GBP/NZD as deep divergence was seen. This week, both are in compliance.

EUR/USD retreats to daily lows near 1.1570

EUR/USD briefly pushed higher earlier in the session, climbing toward the 1.1650 area, but the recovery quickly lost momentum and the pair has drifted back to test the 1.1570 region. A more cautious market mood, driven by the escalating conflict in the Middle East, together with broad-based strength in the US Dollar, is making it difficult for the pair to maintain its footing.

GBP/USD loses the grip, focus is on 1.3300

GBP/USD remains on the defensive on Thursday, hovering around the 1.3320 region. The British Pound is coming under pressure amid growing concerns that rising energy prices could expose the UK economy to stagflation risks, while renewed safe-haven demand for the Greenback continues to weigh on the pair.

Gold drops to two-day lows near $5,100

Gold turns lower on Thursday, slipping back toward the $5,100 area. Persistent strength in the US Dollar (USD) is preventing the precious metal from building a meaningful recovery, even as markets remain risk-averse amid the deepening conflict in the Middle East.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP hold weekly gains despite US-Iran war

Two PMIs, two Chinas

China’s economic data are often treated with a degree of caution by global investors. The challenge is not necessarily that the numbers are incorrect, but that they can describe very different parts of a vast and complex economy. Nowhere is that more evident than in China’s PMIs.

Ripple tests recovery strength amid steady ETF inflows, growing retail interest

Ripple (XRP) continues to demonstrate notable resilience as the cryptocurrency market navigates the persistent war in the Middle East after the United States (US) and Israel attacked Iran on Saturday.
