EUR/USD consolidates gains, are dips supported?

Key highlights

  • EUR/USD rallied above the 1.0820 resistance zone.
  • A key bullish trend line is forming with support at 1.0850 on the 4-hour chart.

EUR/USD technical analysis

Looking at the 4-hour chart, the pair settled above the 1.0850 level, the 100 simple moving average (red, 4-hour), and the 200 simple moving average (green, 4-hour). The pair even spiked above the 1.0900 level and tested the 1.0910-1.0920 resistance zone.

It is now consolidating gains near the 1.0880 zone. If there is a fresh increase, the pair could face resistance near the 1.0910 level. The next resistance sits at 1.0920.

The main hurdle sits at 1.0950. A clear move above the 1.0950 resistance might send it toward the 1.1000 level. Any more gains might open the doors for a test of the 1.1050 zone in the coming days.

Immediate support is near the 1.0880 level. The next major support is near the 1.0850 level. There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support at 1.0850 on the same chart. A downside break and close below the 1.0850 support zone could open the doors for more losses.

GBP/USD edges lower but remains close to multi-month top, awaiting US PCE

The GBP/USD pair trades with a negative bias below mid-1.3600s during the Asian session, eroding a part of the previous day's strong gains. Spot prices, however, remain within striking distance of a six-month top, set last Friday, as traders keenly await the release of the US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index data for a fresh impetus.

EUR/USD Remains sideways ahead of key US events

EUR/USD clinches humble gains around 1.1670 following Tuesday’s close on Wall Street. Indeed, marginal losses in the US Dollar encourages spot to set aside two dauly pullbacks in a row and maintain the 1.1700 barrier on the cross-hairs for now. Moving forward, US inflation tracked by the PCE and another revision of Q2 GDP data should keep investors entertained on Wednesday.

Gold remains depressed below $4,650 on firmer USD; looks to US PCE for Fed rate outlook

Gold sticks to modest losses below $4,650 heading into the European session, though it lacks bearish conviction and remains confined within the previous day's broader range. The US Dollar regains positive traction amid some repositioning ahead of the US Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index and is seen as weighing on the commodity. Adding to this, Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday might offer more cues about the interest rate path.

Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe: Profit-taking cools last week’s rally

Meme coins, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Pepe (PEPE), are losing their bullish momentum after last week’s double-digit gains. Facing downside pressure amid profit-taking, DOGE and PEPE risk further decline while SHIB holds at a support level.

America’s self‑inflicted trade wound
I’m conflicted about the trade war that the U.S. has started with Canada. Let’s be clear: any representation that Canada has been taking unfair advantage of the U.S. or that they have been treating us badly for years is a bogus characterization. In reality, the shoe is on the other foot. It’s the U.S. that has been behaving badly.
Canada hits US goods with tariffs; The rate market sees a problem
On September 8, Canada begins charging its own importers 15%, 25% and 50% on roughly 700 lines of American goods. The measure is billed as dollar for dollar, and on the arithmetic of covered trade it is. What it is not is a tax on the United States.
