Weekly waves: EUR/USD, Bitcoin, and Dow Jones

  • EUR/USD is in a free fall after dropping 700 pips from 1.15 to 1.08 in just 4 weeks. The EUR/USD has managed to reach the 88.6% Fibonacci retracement support.

  • The Bitcoin crypto pair (BTC/USD) made a huge bullish bounce up but price action was unable to break above the resistance (orange).

  • The US30 weekly chart seems to be building a bearish retracement or reversal after being in a long-term uptrend.

EUR/USD 

  1. The EUR/USD has managed to reach the 88.6% Fibonacci retracement support level at 1.08. 

  2. The support zone (blue box and green line) could cause the EUR/USD to pauze its downtrend.

  3. If price action builds a bear flag pattern (gray lines), then a downtrend continuation is expected. In that case, price action is probably building a wave 3 (pink or gray). A shallow retracement indicates a wave 3 (gray) of wave 3 (pink) but a deeper retrace could indicate a wave 4 (pink) instead.

  4. If price action is more bullish (green arrow), then a larger bullish retracement is expected to take place. In that case, a wave D-E (pink) pattern is expected.

  5. An immediate break below the support zone could indicate an immediate downtrend.

EURUSD

BTC/USD 

  1. BTC/USD has probably made a wave B (gray) at the lower high.

  2. This wave B (gray) seems to be part of a larger ABC (gray) pattern within a wave B (pink).

  3. A deeper bearish retracement could take place if price action stays below the local resistance zone (red lines).

  4. But the Fibonacci levels are expecting to be a support zone if price action indeed completed a wave A (pink) impulse.

  5. A bullish price swing could test the resistance trend lines (orange). A bearish bounce indicates the potential for an ABCDE triangle (gray).

  6. A bullish breakout is part of a wave C (pink) in wave B (red).

Bitcoin

US 30 

The US30 is in a downtrend channel after breaking below the support zone (dotted green lines):

  1. The US30 weekly chart seems to be building a bearish retracement or reversal after being in a long-term uptrend.

  2. The wave 5 (pink) of wave 3 (red), however, seems completed and price action is retracing within a potential wave 4 (red).

  3. The retracement could go as far as the 23.6% Fibonacci level which could provide a bounce back up.

  4. An ABC (pink) pattern could take price action back as low as the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level.

  5. The ABC (pink) pattern could be part of a complex wave W (green).

  6. US 30

GBP/USD extends the drop to 1.3360

GBP/USD builds on Monday’s decline and briefly clinches five-day lows near 1.3360 on Tuesday. Cable’s extra pullback follows the better tone in the Greenback as uncertainty in the Middle East prompts investors to adopt a cautious stance. Meanwhile, an apathetic UK labour market report also collaborates with the selling pressure on the British Pound.

EUR/USD stays offered just above 1.1400

EUR/USD keeps the downtrend well in place for yet another day, challenging the 1.1400 contention zone on Tuesday. The continuation of the selling impulse in spot comes amid decent gains in the US Dollar, which continues to find support in the persistent effervescence surrounding the US-Iran crisis.

Gold hits one-week high, near $4,100 as bulls shrug off Fed hike bets and firmer USD

Gold advances to an over one-week high during the Asian session on Wednesday, with bulls now awaiting a move beyond $4,100 before positioning for additional gains. However, concerns about energy-driven inflation risks continue to fuel Fed rate-hike bets and act as a tailwind for the US Dollar amid escalating US-Iran tensions, which, in turn, could cap the bullion.

XRP rebounds on rising on-chain activity
Ripple (XRP) ticks up and trades around $1.13 at the time of writing on Tuesday. This rebound aligns with a broader recovery in the cryptocurrency market, attributed to reports that mediators between the United States (US) and Iran are seeking a 10-day cessation of strikes to find a way back to the signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
The Iranian war has again risen
The Iranian war has again risen to the top of the economics factor list. There is no end in sight. Intelligence experts say the current level of offense/retaliation will not change minds in Tehran, while in Washington, Trump fears all-out war, which would mean boots on the ground.
US Dollar mid-year outlook: Exceptional currency, exceptional risks?
The US Dollar enters the second half of 2026 in a markedly different position from a year ago. The King currency has recovered, reflecting persistent US inflation, changing expectations for Fed policy, geopolitical tensions and renewed demand for defensive assets.
