The EUR/USD pair advanced on Tuesday, trading near the 1.1200 zone after the European session, reflecting a strong bullish tone as the market approaches the Asian session. Price action remains near the top of the daily range, suggesting that buyers maintain control despite mixed momentum readings. The broader technical picture remains constructive, with several longer-term moving averages reinforcing the overall uptrend.

From a technical perspective, the pair presents a mixed but generally positive outlook. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits in the 40s, indicating balanced momentum without immediate overbought conditions. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), however, continues to flash a sell signal, hinting at potential short-term resistance. Meanwhile, the Bull Bear Power indicator supports the buy bias, adding weight to the bullish case. The Ultimate Oscillator also holds in the 40s, reflecting a cautious tone, while the Stochastic %K, trading near 16, flashes a clear buy signal, indicating potential for further gains.

The broader trend structure is supported by key moving averages. The 100-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages, along with the 50-day Exponential Moving Average and 50-day Simple Moving Average, all align with the buy sentiment, reinforcing the underlying uptrend. However, the 20-day Simple Moving Average remains a headwind, suggesting that the path higher may still face resistance.

Support levels cluster around 1.1132, 1.1084 and 1.1083. Resistance is found at 1.1197, 1.1230 and 1.1242. A sustained move above the immediate resistance zone could confirm a broader breakout, while a drop below support might trigger a short-term correction, potentially testing the lower end of the recent range.

Gold moves closer to $5,150 amid sustained safe-haven flows

Gold climbs back above $5,100 during the Asian session on Wednesday, moving away from an over one-week low, touched the previous day. Sustained safe-haven flow, amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, acts as a tailwind for the bullion. However, a bullish US Dollar and reduced bets for more aggressive easing by the US Fed might keep a lid on the non-yielding yellow metal ahead of the US ADP report and ISM Services PMI later today.
