EUR/CHF Price Analysis: Extends bounce off 200-HMA to refresh intraday top above 1.0800

EUR/CHF picks up the bids after snapping two-day winning streak the previous day.

Two-week-old ascending trend line adds to the downside support.

Anil Panchal FXStreet

EUR/CHF rises to 1.0813 during the pre-European session on Wednesday. The pair recently gained upside momentum as 200-HMA beat bears. The pair dropped from the one-week top the previous day amid failures to cross a short-term resistance line and a broad risk-off mood.

Considering the return of bullish MACD return, together with the latest pullback, the pair is likely to remain positive and challenge the weekly top near 1.0850.

Though, an ascending trend line from September 02, at 1.0857 now, may restrict the quote’s further advances towards the monthly top of 1.0877.

If at all the risk-off mood recall the sellers and break the 200-HMA level of 1.0797, an upward sloping support line from August 27, currently around 1.0786, will be the key to watch.

During the quote’s downside past-1.0797, the previous month’s bottom close to 1.0720 can offer an intermediate halt before reprinting the 1.0700 threshold on the chart.

AUD/USD consolidates above 0.7000; remains close to monthly top

AUD/USD holds steady above 0.7000 during the Asian session on Friday, trading just below the previous day's monthly low amid diverging forces. A hawkish RBA continues to support the Aussie, while the recent decline in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar depressed near a three-week low. However, oil-driven inflation fears reinforce Fed hike bets, which, along with geopolitical risks, could benefit the safe-haven buck and cap the currency pair.

USD/JPY bounces off one-month low; climbs to 157.00 amid reviving USD demand

USD/JPY rebounds from the 156.00 neighborhood, or a one-month low touched during Friday’s Asian session, with bulls looking to extend momentum beyond 157.00 amid the emergence of some US Dollar buying. Meanwhile, Japan's National CPI rose to a nine-month peak and reaffirmed BoJ rate-hike bets, which could support the Japanese Yen and cap gains for the currency pair.

Gold treads water around $4,000

Gold prices maintain its offered stance in place at the end of the week, hovering around the key $4,000 threshold per troy ounce. The persistent selling bias in the precious metal comes amid decent gains in the US Dollar and an acceptable rebound in US Treasury yields across the curve, all alongside further upside traction in crude oil prices.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin holds the 50-day EMA as Ethereum and XRP face structural resistance

The French bond panic is overdone. Here's what the market is misreading

France's 10-year government bond yield has climbed above 5%, reigniting fears of a sovereign debt crisis in the Eurozone. With public debt exceeding €3.5 trillion, persistent budget deficits and a fragmented political landscape, investors are increasingly questioning the French government's ability to stabilize its finances.

What November 3 means for the Fed's rate path and the US Dollar

The USD faces a decisive period ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. While markets anticipate another interest rate increase from the Fed in December, the battle for control of Congress could reshape fiscal policy expectations and, indirectly, the path of US monetary policy in 2027.
