The EUR/USD pair showed mild downside on Monday’s session after the European close, though it continued to hover around the 1.1400 region. Despite the slight pullback, the pair maintained its overall bullish structure, staying well within the upper half of the daily range between 1.12956 and 1.14242.

From a technical perspective, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) prints 76, suggesting the pair is in overbought territory. However, the MACD maintains a bullish posture with a buy signal, pointing to underlying positive momentum. In contrast, the Commodity Channel Index (20) at 231.17 flashes a sell warning, while the Average Directional Index (14) at 41.01 offers no directional bias.

Beneath the surface, the moving averages continue to anchor the bullish sentiment. The 10-day exponential moving average at 1.10918 and the 10-day simple moving average at 1.10382 both lean upward, aligning with the 20-day (1.09333), 100-day (1.05647), and 200-day (1.07456) simple moving averages, which all signal strong upward momentum in the medium-to-long term.

On the levels front, key support lies at 1.13347, followed by 1.1103 and 1.10918. Immediate resistance is seen around the 1.1420 area, with further upside likely to face psychological barriers near 1.1450 and beyond, should bulls retain control.

EUR/USD looks to regain the 200-day SMA

EUR/USD regains some balance and trade just above 1.1600 the figure ahead of the opening bell in Asia.

GBP/USD attacks 1.3300, refreshing three-month lows

GBP/USD is deep in the red near 1.3300, accelerating its downside to renew three-month lows in European trading on Tuesday.

Gold bounces off lows, back above $5,100

Gold remains on the defensive, eroding part of the recent multi-day advance and managing to trade back above the $5,100 mark per troy ounce on Tuesday. The precious metal initially dropped just below the critical $5,000 threshold on the back of the persistent strength of the Greenback, higher US Treasury yields across the curve and investors' repricing of Fed rate cuts.
