EUR/USD remains pressured around the lowest level since July 2020, lackluster near 1.1445 during Monday’s initial Asian session. In doing so, the major currency pair struggles to justify the previous day’s Doji candlestick formation suggesting a corrective pullback.

Even so, nearly oversold RSI conditions and multiple supports to the downside keep EUR/USD buyers hopeful to challenge the support-turned-resistance line from October, near 1.1485.

Should the quote’s anticipated rebound crosses the 1.1485 hurdle, the 10-DMA figure of 1.1517 will test the pair buyers ahead of directing them to the monthly high near 1.1620.

It’s worth noting that the EUR/USD bulls will remain doubtful until witnessing a clear break of October’s high around 1.1695.

Meanwhile, the further downside will aim for the previous day’s low of 1.1432, a break of which will direct EUR/USD towards the June 2020 top, surrounding 1.1422.

In a case where the pair remains weak past 1.1422, a descending support line from June, near 1.1410 and the 1.1400 threshold will be in the spotlight.

To sum up, EUR/USD bears seem to be tired and Friday’s Doji may trigger the much-awaited rebound considering RSI conditions. However, multiple hurdles do challenge the bull’s entry.

EUR/USD flirts with daily highs, retargets 1.1900

EUR/USD regains upside traction, returning to the 1.1880 zone and refocusing its attention to the key 1.1900 barrier. The pair’s slight gains comes against the backdrop of a humble decline in the US Dollar as investors continue to assess the latest US CPI readings and the potential Fed’s rate path.

GBP/USD remains well bid around 1.3650

GBP/USD maintains its upside momentum in place, hovering around daily highs near 1.3650 and setting aside part of the recent three-day drop. Cable’s improved sentiment comes on the back of the Greenback’s irresolute price action, while recent hawkish comments from the BoE’s Pill also collaborate with the uptick.

Gold clings to gains just above $5,000/oz

Gold is reclaiming part of the ground lost on Wednesday’s marked decline, as bargain-hunters keep piling up and lifting prices past the key $5,000 per troy ounce. The precious metal’s move higher is also underpinned by the slight pullback in the US Dollar and declining US Treasury yields across the curve.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP in choppy price action, weighed down by falling institutional interest

Bitcoin's upside remains largely constrained amid weak technicals and declining institutional interest. Ethereum trades sideways above $1,900 support with the upside capped below $2,000 amid ETF outflows.

Week ahead – Data blitz, Fed Minutes and RBNZ decision in the spotlight

US GDP and PCE inflation are main highlights, plus the Fed minutes. UK and Japan have busy calendars too with focus on CPI. Flash PMIs for February will also be doing the rounds. RBNZ meets, is unlikely to follow RBA’s hawkish path.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP potential bottom could be in sight

Ripple edges up above the intraday low of $1.35 at the time of writing on Friday amid mixed price actions across the crypto market. The remittance token failed to hold support at $1.40 the previous day, reflecting risk-off sentiment amid a decline in retail and institutional sentiment.
