AUD/JPY technical analysis: 61.8% Fibo. offers immediate support

Sustained beak below 21-day EMA portrays AUD/JPY weakness.
Buyers may look for entering above 76.40.

Anil Panchal FXStreet

While sustained trading below the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA) portrays the AUD/JPY pair’s weakness, the quote seesaws near 74.9810 ahead of the EU markets’ open on Monday.

The 74.80/78 area comprising mid-June highs can offer an intermediate halt ahead of dragging prices to 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the pair recovery from January month’s flash crash to April top, at 74.5470.

In a case where bears keep dominating below 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level, despite oversold conditions of 14-day relative strength index (RSI), June 20 low of 74.13 and the previous month bottom around 73.92 can lure the sellers.

Alternatively, 21-day EMA level of 75.53 acts as an immediate resistance ahead of 50% Fibonacci retracement level of 75.7376. Though, buyers will wait for a successful break beyond May 20 top, surrounding 76.40, before targeting 77.00 round-figure.

GBP/USD remains slightly bid near 1.3300

GBP/USD now advances marginally and manages to dispute the 1.3300 region on Tuesday. Indeed, Cable regains some balance on the back of the lacklustre performance of the Greenback, all preceding the Fed’s meeting on Wednesday and the BoE’s gathering on Thursday.

EUR/USD recedes from tops, back below 1.1400

EUR/USD manages to set aside part of the recent weakness and clinches decent gains on Tuesday. Indeed, spot keeps the trade below the 1.1400 mark amid acceptable losses in the US Dollar, all following rising optimism of a US-Iran deal and steady caution prior to the FOMC gathering on Wednesday.

Gold bounces on poor US data

Gold remains under marked downside pressure on Tuesday, although the $4,000 zone per troy ounce emerges as a decent support for now. The precious metal’s pullback comes despite the modest losses in the US Dollar in a context of easing geopolitical tensions ahead of the key Fed event on Wednesday.

XRP falls toward $1.00 despite dwindling exchange reserves

Ripple (XRP) continues to trade under increasing pressure on Tuesday. This marks the second consecutive day of declines, reflecting broader risk-off sentiment as investors appear to shift gears in anticipation of the Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate decision. On Wednesday, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is widely expected to leave interest rates unchanged in the 3.50%-3.75% range.

Warning signs in the stock market: Is this the top, or just a very short fuse?

Overnight, South Korea's Kospi fell more than 10%, SK Hynix lost close to 15% and Samsung Electronics lost 13%. Into that, Dow Jones Industrial Average futures traded up around 1% on paint and soft drinks, and S&P 500 futures sat roughly flat. An index that absorbs a memory-chip panic and prints nothing is not a calm market.

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.
