AUD/NZD Price Analysis: Aussie rises back above 1.0400, still in danger zone

Rally of the Aussie post-RBA turns short-lived.
AUD/NZD hits weekly lows under 1.0400, but then rebounds.

Matías Salord FXStreet

The rebound of the AUD/NZD after the Reserve Bank of Australia meeting was short-lived. The cross then dropped to 1.0380, the lowest since last week. It is hovering around the critical area of 1.0400.

Despite avoiding so far a sharp breakout under 1.0400, technical indicators on the daily chart still favor the downside. A close above 1.0450 would be a positive development for the aussie, suggesting a consolidation ahead with a potential recovery to 1.0500. The next resistance is seen at 1.0510 followed by 1.0540.

While under 1.0450, AUD/NZD seems vulnerable and a consolidation under 1.0400 should target; below the next support stands at 1.0300.

EUR/USD keeps the rangebound trade near 1.1850

EUR/USD is still under pressure, drifting back towards the 1.1850 area as Monday’s session draws to a close. The modest decline in spot comes as the US Dollar picks up a bit of support, while thin liquidity and muted volatility, thanks to the US market holiday, are exaggerating price swings and keeping trading conditions choppy.

GBP/USD flirts with daily lows near 1.3630

GBP/USD has quickly given back Friday’s solid gains, turning lower at the start of the week and drifting back towards the 1.3630 area. The focus now shifts squarely to Tuesday’s UK labour market report, which is likely to keep the quid firmly in the spotlight and could set the tone for Cable’s next move.

Gold battle around $5,000 continues

Gold is giving back part of Friday’s sharp rebound, deflating below the key $5,000 mark per troy ounce as the new week gets underway. Modest gains in the US Dollar are keeping the metal in check, while thin trading conditions, due to the Presidents Day holiday in the US, are adding to the choppy and hesitant tone across markets.

AI Crypto Update: Bittensor eyes breakout as AI tokens falter

The artificial intelligence (AI) cryptocurrency segment is witnessing heightened volatility, with top tokens such as Near Protocol (NEAR) struggling to gain traction amid the persistent decline in January and February.

The week ahead: Key inflation readings and why the AI trade could be overdone

It is likely to be a quiet start to the week, with US markets closed on Monday for Presidents Day. European markets are higher across the board and gold is clinging to the $5,000 level after the tamer than expected CPI report in the US reduced haven flows to precious metals.

XRP steadies in narrow range as fund inflows, futures interest rise
