EUR/USD Price Analysis: Decent contention appears around 0.9700

EUR/USD triggers a knee-jerk after failing to surpass 0.9900.
There is initial support around the 0.9700 region so far.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/USD corrects lower and approaches 0.9800 after two consecutive daily advances at the beginning of the week.

In case losses accelerate, the pair should face the initial contention at last week’s lows near the 0.9700 yardstick (October 21). If cleared, then the October low at 0.9631 (October 13) could emerge on the horizon.

In the longer run, the pair’s bearish view should remain unaltered while below the 200-day SMA at 1.0529.

EUR/USD trims gains, back below 1.1800

EUR/USD now loses some upside momentum, returning to the area below the 1.1800 support as the Greenback manages to regain some composure following the SCOTUS-led pullback earlier in the session.

GBP/USD off highs, recedes to the sub-1.3500 area

Following earlier highs north of 1.3500 the figure, GBP/USD now faces some renewed downside pressure, revisiting the 1.3490 zone as the US Dollar manages to regain some upside impulse in the latter part of the NA session on Friday.

Gold climbs to weekly tops, approaches $5,100/oz

Gold keeps the bid tone well in place at the end of the week, now hitting fresh weekly highs and retargeting the key $5,100 mark per troy ounce. The move higher in the yellow metal comes in response to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and modest losses in the US Dollar.
