AUD/USD Price Analysis: Mildly offered around 0.7350 inside short-term EMA envelope

AUD/USD holds lower ground inside weekly trading range.
20-day, 50-day EMA restricts immediate moves, 100-day EMA adds to the upside filters.
Steady RSI suggests further grinding but a three-week-old trend line break keeps sellers hopeful.

AUD/USD remains on the back foot around 0.7360, down 0.09% intraday, during early Tuesday.

The Aussie pair dropped to the September-start lows the previous day before bouncing off 0.7355. In doing so, the quote keeps the short-term trading range between 20-day and 50-day EMA.

In addition to the 20-day and 50-day EMA levels, respectively around 0.7385 and 0.7350, steady RSI conditions also signal a lack of momentum.

However, the pair’s sustained trading below 100-day EMA, around 0.7460 by the press time, as well as the last week’s downside break of an ascending trend line from August 20, keeps the AUD/USD sellers hopeful.

Hence, sellers await a downside break of the 20-day EMA level of 0.7350 to aim for 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the May-August downside, near 0.7290.

Following that, 0.7230 and 0.7160 may challenge AUD/USD bears before directing them to the yearly low near 0.7130.

GBP/USD rebounds above 1.3200 as USD loses traction

GBP/USD starts the week on a bullish note and advances toward 1.3250 on Monday. The pair recovers ground as the US Dollar uptrend falters and traders resort to profit-taking ahead of Tuesday's US-Iran peace talks and Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's appearance on Wednesday at the ECB Forum.

EUR/USD clings to modest gains near 1.1400

EUR/USD gains traction on Monday and trades moderately higher on the day above 1.1400, helped by a broadly weaker US Dollar. Traders continue to assess the developments surrounding talks to end the US war with Iran. The European Central Bank's annual forum and the US June employment data will be the highlights later this week.

Gold stays in red near $4,050 as US-Iran clash revives inflation fears

Gold price remains in the negative territory around $4,050 in Monday's European trading. The bullion struggles as military clashes between the United States and Iran in the strategic Strait of Hormuz have revived inflation concerns, bolstering Fed rate hike expectations. However, a broad US Dollar retreat is helping limit Gold's downside.

Bitcoin four-year cycle: BTC risks 75% drawdown with four months of bear market still ahead

Bitcoin price continues to trend downward below the $60,000 support zone after losing over 50% of its value since the $126,199 high in October. Bitcoin’s four-year cycle, measured from cycle tops to bottoms, suggests that four months of a bear market are still ahead.

Just like Fed, is BoJ’s independence under threat?

When talking about central bank independence, most of the focus has been on Donald Trump’s pressure on the Federal Reserve. But a similar story, a quieter one for now, seems to be happening on the other side of the Pacific: Japan’s government may be testing the Bank of Japan’s independence.

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
