EUR/GBP Price Analysis: Advances for the fifth day, secure 0.8700 as solid support

EUR/GBP maintains its upward momentum, trading at 0.8731, as it solidifies the 0.8700 level as a crucial support.
The pair shows a bullish bias, but a failure to surpass the 0.8755 high could invite bearish activity.
Key levels to watch include resistance at 0.8800 and 0.8834, with support at the 200-DMA of 0.8688 and the 50-DMA at 0.8657.

EUR/GBP climbed during Friday’s session, extending its rally to five consecutive days, gaining so far 0.89% in the week, cementing the 0.8700 psychological level as solid support for the next week. At the time of writing, the cross-pair trades at 0.8731, up a decent 0.13%.

The EUR/GBP pair is bullish biased but downside risks remain. Unless buyers reclaim today’s high at 0.8755, bears are lurking. In the event of a bullish resumption, the cross’s first resistance would be the 0.8800 mark, followed by the May 3 high at 0.8834, followed by April’s 25 high at 0.8875.

Conversely, if EUR/GBP drops below 0.8700, the first support would be the 200-day moving average (DMA) previously broken at 0.8688 followed by the 50-DMA at 0.8657, before diving to the latest cycle low of 0.8649.

GBP/USD treads water around 1.3500 as Hormuz risks support USD

After closing the previous week in positive territory, GBP/USD trades with caution around 1.3500 on Monday. The pair faces headwinds from a modest US Dollar rebound as mood sours on persistent uncertainty surrounding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and US-Iran talks.

EUR/USD steady near 1.1550 as USD selloff pauses

EUR/USD keeps its range near 1.1550 in the second half of the day on Monday, holding the retreat from fresh highs since June 17, touched in reaction to the disappointing US jobs data on Friday. Renewed Middle East tensions lend support to the safe-haven US Dollar, capping the pair's upside attempts despite improved Eurozone sentiment data.

Gold holds firm as Fed rate outlook, Middle East developments remain in focus

Gold (XAU/USD) holds firm on Monday as buyers take a breather following last week’s sharp rally, with the broader market theme still centred on the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) interest-rate outlook and developments in the Middle East. At the time of writing, XAU/USD trades around $4,333, little changed on the day.

Pi Network: Mild bearish bias caps PI corrective rebound

Pi Network extends losses Monday after a bearish close the previous day, as price remains capped below the $0.1000 psychological threshold. Speculative demand for PI is low, with Open Interest holding above $9 million as broader market sentiment improves. The technical outlook for PI indicates a mild bearish bias as the $0.0961 resistance level remains intact.

US Payrolls miss – RBA on deck tomorrow

It would be remiss of me not to kick off this morning’s report with a rundown of last Friday’s US jobs report, which was a belter. Headline payrolls fell by 23,000, versus expectations of an 80,000 gain. The BLS noted that May was revised down by 66,000 (from 129,000) and June by 37,000 (from 57,000), resulting in combined May-June revisions of 103,000 lower than previous reports.

9-3: Is the Federal Reserve’s vote tally Warsh's new forward guidance?

The rate did not move. Neither did the statement, and that’s the more interesting fact. Set the July 29 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) statement beside the one issued on June 17, and the two documents are identical apart from a single verb and a paragraph at the bottom naming three dissenters.
