AUD/USD Price Analysis: Heavy below 0.6400 on confirming short-term rising wedge amid Yuan’s drop

AUD/USD declines to seven-day low after confirming a short-term bearish technical pattern.
China’s offshore Yuan drops to the six-week low against the US dollar.
21-day SMA acts as the immediate support ahead of 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.

AUD/USD extends the early-Asian session south-run while flashing 0.65% loss to 0.6375 amid the early Monday’s trading.

The pair recently confirmed a short-term bearish formation that signals the quote’s slump towards the sub-0.5800 area with 21-day and 50-day SMA, respectively around 0.6355 and 0.6290, acting as immediate supports.

Should Aussie prices decline further below 0.6290, March-end tops surrounding 0.6215 and April month low near 0.5980/75 can entertain sellers.

Meanwhile, an upside clearance of the support-turned-resistance, at 0.6440 now, will have to cross 0.6500 mark ahead of challenging the previous month top near 0.6570.

It’s worth mentioning that the offshore Chinese Yaun (CNH) has a heavy influence over the Australian dollar (AUD). As a result, the USD/CNH surge to the six-week top near 7.15 can be termed as the catalyst for the Aussie pair’s latest drop.

GBP/USD drops to multi-week lows below 1.3300

GBP/USD sets aside Friday’s uptick and breaches below the 1.3300 yardstcik on Monday to hit new multi-week troughs. Falling crude oil prices following a pause in the Middle East conflict in combination with the recent soft reading in UK inflation appear to play against any BoE tightening ahead of the bank’s event later in the week.

EUR/USD meets support near 1.1370

EUR/USD fades the initial bull run past 1.1400 the figure, deflating toward the 1.1370 zone on Monday. That said, the pair reverses two daily drops in a row on the back of the irresolute price action in the US Dollar, at the time when investors continue to closely follow developments from the Middle East conflict. Next on tap is the release of the US Consumer Confidence gauge by the Conference Board.

Gold eyes $4,050 on bullish USD as traders look to FOMC policy meeting

Gold slides back closer to $4,050 during the Asian session on Tuesday amid a bullish US Dollar. The downside seems limited as traders might opt to wait for the outcome of a two-day FOMC policy meeting on Wednesday. Furthermore, a pause in US-Iran hostilities led to a slump in crude oil prices, easing inflationary concerns and tempering bets for Fed rate hikes. This holds back the USD bulls from placing aggressive bets and should act as a tailwind for the non-yielding bullion.

Neither Hormuz nor Oil at $120: Why Japanese bond yields are the real market threat

While geopolitical headlines continually send traders rushing to the Oil charts, history shows that the biggest market moves often begin when liquidity disappears, not when crude spikes. Rising bond yields, particularly in Japan and Switzerland, threaten to trigger the unwinding of one of the largest leveraged trades in financial history.

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.
