EUR/USD: Minor resistance at 1.0960/80 for profit-taking perhaps shorts are too risky now [Video]

AUDUSD we wrote: close below 7480 leaves a negative weekly candle for a sell signal for this week.
The pair headed lower as predicted to 7455/45 & as far as strong support at 7400/7390. Longs need stops below 7370.
NZDUSD broke support at 6920/10 to target 6850/40 & perhaps as far as 6785/75 this week.
AUDJPY is likely to have formed a double top for a sell signal. Shorts at strong resistance at 9400/16 worked perfectly on the slide to my targets of 9320/00 & 9260/50 for up to 150 pips profit so far (risking 20 pips to make 150 always works!) - however we saw an unexpected bounce yesterday.
EURUSD plunged last week as expected after the bearish engulfing candle the week before a bounce from the buy opportunity at 1.0850/20 hit the target of 1.0930/40, with a high for the day yesterday.
USDCAD beat resistance at 1.2590/1.2610 to hit the next target & strong resistance at 1.2650/70. Shorts need stops above 1.2680.
GBPCAD consolidating losses with no buy signal yet so further sideways trading is likely for now. Same levels apply for today.

EUR/USD appears supported by the 200-day SMA, for now

Following an early pullback to multi-week lows near 1.1670, EUR/USD now manages to reclaim the 1.1700 region as the NA session draws to a close on Monday. The steep retracement in spot follows the equally strong move higher in the US Dollar, as investors continue to assess the geopolitical landscape in the wake of the US and Israel attacks on Iran.

GBP/USD hits new yearly lows near 1.3300

GBP/USD adds to the recent bearish tone, approaching to the key 1.3300 support to reach fresh YTD troughs against the backdrop of the robust performance of the US Dollar. Indeed, Cable’s decline comes amid the firm demand for the safe-haven space in the wake of the US and Israel attacks to Iran.

Gold eases some ground, approaches $5,300

Gold now surrenders part of the earlier advance, reshifting its attenton to the $5,300 zone per troy ounce at the beginning of the week. Indeed, the yellow metal’s firm performance appears propped up by incresing geopolitical jitters in the Middle East, which at the same time fuels the demand for the safe-haven space.
