EUR/GBP Price Forecast: Climbs above 200-day SMA shows bullish momentum

  • Euro strengthens, trades above 200-day SMA at 0.8425, signaling bullish momentum against Pound.
  • Bulls target January 15 high at 0.8463; breaking this could extend to 0.8500 and higher.
  • If EUR/GBP falls below 200-day SMA, may drop to 0.8400, with support at January 14 low of 0.8383.

The Euro extended its gains versus the Pound Sterling on Friday, posting back-to-back bullish bars and climbing above the crucial 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.8425. This indicates bullish momentum is building as the EUR/GBP trades at 0.8443.

EUR/GBP Price Forecast: Technical outlook

Bulls are in charge but must clear the January 15 peak at 0.8463. Once surpassed, the next stop will be 0.8500. A breach of the latter will expose intermediate resistance at the August 21 peak of 0.8544, followed by the August 14 high at 0.8593.

Conversely, if EUR/GBP falls below the 200-day SMA, sellers can challenge 0.8400. On further weakness, the next support will be the January 14 low of 0.8383.

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.
