AUD/USD Price Analysis: Bears brace for 0.7200 at three-week low

  • AUD/USD holds lower ground near monthly low, prints three-day downtrend.
  • Sustained trading below 200-DMA, descending RSI, not oversold, back the bears.
  • 78.6% Fibonacci retracement can trigger corrective pullback, two-month-old hurdle guards recovery moves.

AUD/USD remains pressured around the monthly low of 0.7226, down 0.68% intraday ahead of Monday’s European session.

In doing so, the Aussie pair extends Friday’s downside break of one-month-old horizontal support, now resistance, amid a bearish RSI line.

Given the absence of oversold RSI, AUD/USD prices can continue extending the south-run towards the 0.7200 threshold, comprising 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level of November 2020 to February 2021 upside.

It should be noted, however, that any further downside past 0.7200 may be challenged by the RSI conditions, likely to turn oversold around then, if not then the yearly low near 0.7105 and a descending support line from April close to 0.7015 will be in focus.

Meanwhile, the corrective pullback will be ignored unless crossing a horizontal area comprising July’s low, surrounding 0.7290.

Even so, 50-DMA and 61.8% Fibonacci retracement levels, respectively around 0.7340 and 0.7340, challenge the AUD/USD bulls.

EUR/USD: Cautiously optimistic near 1.1550 ahead of the ECB

EUR/USD extends its weekly recovery for the third day in a row on Wednesday, navigating in a sidelined fashion around 1.1550 on the back of humble losses in the US Dollar. In the meantime, market participants continue to closely follow developments in the Middle East while slowly gearing up for the ECB gathering on Thursday.

GBP/USD is hawkish for all the wrong reasons

Pound Sterling was handed a gift on Wednesday and dropped it within the hour. A soft core reading inside the US Consumer Price Index report knocked the Dollar back just long enough for GBP/USD to reclaim the 200-day Exponential Moving Average around 1.3400, tagging session highs just beyond it before the entire move was methodically sold through the US afternoon to a close at the day's lows near 1.3350. 

Gold falls to multi‑month low near $4,050 as hot US inflation boosts Fed hawkish bets

Gold price tumbles to around $4,050, the lowest since November 2025, during the early Asian session on Thursday. The precious metal extends the decline as a hot US inflation report and ongoing tensions in the Middle East fueled expectations for higher-for-longer US Federal Reserve interest rates.

The proposed framework targets contracts linked to terrorism, assassination, war, gaming, or conduct that is unlawful under federal or state law.

From sizzle to fizzle: Tech sinks as Oil puts the Fed tail back on the table
Wall Street was not hit by one punch. It was caught between three swinging doors at the same time: a renewed technology unwind, a fresh geopolitical oil bid, and a wave of equity supply that is starting to look less like capital formation and more like a liquidity test for the entire AI complex.
The US economy defies the rules: 100 days into the Oil shock and the recession signal is still missing

More than three months after the start of the Iran war and the resulting disruption to global energy markets, the US economy continues to display remarkable resilience. The conflict has triggered a sharp rise in Oil prices, reignited inflationary pressures and fueled widespread concerns about a potential economic slowdown.
