  • EUR/USD - 1.1305.. Euro met renewed buying at 1.1214 at the start of last week n rose to 1.1288 Wed b4 briefly dropping to 1.1230 on dovish ECB's Draghi but on to rally to a 2-week high of 1.1325 Fri on active eur/yen demand.

  • On the bigger picture, despite euro's resumption of LT rise fm 2017 near 14-year bottom of 1.0341 to a fresh 3-year peak of 1.2555 in mid-Feb, subsequent selloff to 1.1216 in Nov 2018, then to a 20-month bottom at 1.1177 in early part of Mar confirms said major uptrend has made a top there. Although price fell fm 1.1448 to 1.1184 initially in Apr, subsequent rally to 1.1325 suggests the volatile price action fm 1.1177 may be unfolding into a bearish triangle n as long as 1.1448 holds, another 1.1120/30 is seen, 'bullish convergences' on daily indicators should keep price abv 1.1054 (61.8% proj. of 1.1815-1.1177 measured fm 1.1448). Only abv 1.1448 risks stronger gain twd 1.1570 in May.

  • Today, although euro's retreat in NY after Fri's impressive rally to 1.1325 would bring initial consolidation, as long as 1.1281 holds, recent erratic rise fm 1.1184 would head to 1.1375, 'bearish divergences' on hourly indicators should cap price at 1.1400. Only below 1.1250 risks 1.1230, then 1.1206/10.

EUR/USD eases toward 1.1700 as USD finds fresh demand

EUR/USD eases toward the 1.1700 mark in early Europe on Friday. The pair faces headwinds from a renewed uptick in the US Dollar as investors look past softer US inflation data. However, the EUR/USD downside appears capped by expectations of Fed-ECB monetary policy divergence. 

GBP/USD steadies below 1.3400 as traders digest BoE policy update and US inflation data

The GBP/USD pair stalls the previous day's pullback from the vicinity of mid-1.3400s and a nearly two-month high, though it struggles to attract meaningful buyers during the Asian session on Friday. Spot prices currently trade around the 1.3380-1.3385 region, up only 0.05% for the day, amid mixed cues.

Gold seems vulnerable as USD bulls shrug off softer US CPI

Gold extends the previous day's late pullback from the vicinity of the record high and attracts some follow-through selling during the Asian session on Friday. The US CPI report released on Thursday pointed to cooling of inflationary pressure.

Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple correction slide as BoJ rate decision weighs on sentiment

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple are extending their correction phases after losing nearly 3%, 8%, and 10%, respectively, through Friday. The pullback phase is further strengthened as the upcoming Bank of Japan’s rate decision on Friday weighs on risk sentiment, with BTC breaking key support, ETH deepening weekly losses, and XRP sliding to multi-month lows.

Bank of England cuts rates in heavily divided decision

The Bank of England has cut rates to 3.75%, but the decision was more hawkish than expected, leaving market rates higher and sterling slightly stronger. It's a close call whether the Bank cuts again in February or March.

Ethereum Price Forecast: EF outlines ways to solve growing state issues

Ethereum price today: $2,920. The EF noted that Ethereum's growing state could lead to centralization and weaken censorship resistance. The Stateless Consensus team outlined state expiry, state archive and partial statelessness as potential solutions to the growing state load.
