EUR/USD put efforts to continue its winning streak for the sixth successive session on Tuesday. The pair hovers around 1.0860 during the Asian session. In the daily-frame chart, the pair shows that it is taking support on the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which suggests that the pair could move upward to retest the strong resistance at the previous week’s high at 1.0876.

Furthermore, the EUR/USD pair could explore the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of 1.0883, followed by the psychological level of 1.0900.

Additionally, technical analysis suggests a bullish sentiment for the EUR/USD pair. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is positioned above the 50 mark, indicating strength in buying momentum.

The lagging indicator, Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), shows a divergence above the signal line, which indicates gaining strength for the pair. However, it is still positioned below the centreline. So, the traders are likely to await MACD to offer a clear trend direction.

On the downside, the EUR/USD pair could find immediate support at the major level of 1.0850, followed by the nine-day EMA at 1.0833. A break below this level could lead the pair to navigate the region around the psychological level of 1.0800 following the previous week’s low at 1.0724.

GBP/USD extends the drop to 1.3360

GBP/USD builds on Monday’s decline and briefly clinches five-day lows near 1.3360 on Tuesday. Cable’s extra pullback follows the better tone in the Greenback as uncertainty in the Middle East prompts investors to adopt a cautious stance. Meanwhile, an apathetic UK labour market report also collaborates with the selling pressure on the British Pound.

EUR/USD stays offered just above 1.1400

EUR/USD keeps the downtrend well in place for yet another day, challenging the 1.1400 contention zone on Tuesday. The continuation of the selling impulse in spot comes amid decent gains in the US Dollar, which continues to find support in the persistent effervescence surrounding the US-Iran crisis.

Middle East crisis intensifies, Gold up

Gold now seems to have embarked on a consolidative phase below the key $4,100 mark per troy ounce in the latter part of Tuesday’s session. Meanwhile, uncertainty surrounding the Middle East conflict and rising expectations for a hawkish Fed policy outlook are expected to limit the precious metal’s bullish momentum in the near term.

XRP rebounds on rising on-chain activity

Ripple (XRP) ticks up and trades around $1.13 at the time of writing on Tuesday. This rebound aligns with a broader recovery in the cryptocurrency market, attributed to reports that mediators between the United States (US) and Iran are seeking a 10-day cessation of strikes to find a way back to the signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).

The Iranian war has again risen

The Iranian war has again risen to the top of the economics factor list. There is no end in sight. Intelligence experts say the current level of offense/retaliation will not change minds in Tehran, while in Washington, Trump fears all-out war, which would mean boots on the ground.

US Dollar mid-year outlook: Exceptional currency, exceptional risks?

The US Dollar enters the second half of 2026 in a markedly different position from a year ago. The King currency has recovered, reflecting persistent US inflation, changing expectations for Fed policy, geopolitical tensions and renewed demand for defensive assets.
