EUR/USD Price Analysis: A drop to 1.0833 remains in store

EUR/USD prints new lows near 1.0840 on Friday.
Further weakness could revisit the 1.0830 region.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/USD maintains the multi-session bearish move well in place at the end of the week.

A deeper pullback now targets the July low of 1.0833 (July 6). The loss of this region leaves the pair vulnerable to a probable test of the critical 200-day SMA at 1.0790 in the short-term horizon.

In the meantime, the pair’s positive outlook remains unchanged while above the 200-day SMA.

AUD/USD bulls regain control above 0.6950 amid USD retreat

AUD/USD regains traction and extends the previous day's bounce from the weekly low, aiming for 0.7000 in Asia on Friday. The overnight pullback in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar below an 18-month high, which in turn offers some support to the pair. Meanwhile, hawkish RBA expectations also keep the major underpinned.

USD/JPY clings to gains around 158.00 after data showed on Friday that Japan's Household Spending fell for the ninth straight month, undermining the Japanese Yen.

Gold remains range-bound below $4,200

Gold has given up some ground after an initial bullish attempt to reach weekly highs, returning to below the $4,200 mark per troy ounce on Friday. The US Dollar’s strong upside momentum, combined with rising US Treasury yields across the curve, seems to keep further gains in the yellow metal under scrutiny.

Has Bitcoin really escaped the macro forces it was built to fight?

Over 17 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto designed Bitcoin (BTC) on the back of a global financial crisis as an alternative to the global monetary system outside the control of central banks, governments and traditional intermediaries.

The pair has lost more than 7% since its yearly peak, as concerns over France's public finances increasingly weigh on the single currency. But behind the weakness of the Euro (EUR), the problem does not necessarily lie with the European economy as a whole.
