EUR/USD Price Forecast: Rises to near 1.1550, four-year highs

  • EUR/USD may revisit the four-year high at 1.1573.
  • The 14-day RSI remains above 70, indicating overbought conditions and hinting at a potential downward correction.
  • Immediate support is seen near the lower boundary of the ascending channel, around 1.1400.

EUR/USD extends its gains for the third successive session, trading around 1.1530 during the Asian hours on Tuesday. The technical analysis of the daily chart suggests growing buying pressure and as the pair is moving upwards within an ascending channel pattern.

Furthermore, the EUR/USD pair remains above the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), signalling strengthened short-term price momentum. However, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), a key momentum indicator, remains above the 70 mark, suggesting that the pair is overbought and a downward correction is on the horizon.

On the upside, the EUR/USD pair could retest the 1.1573, the highest since November 2021, which was recorded on April 21. A break above this level could reinforce the bullish bias and lead the pair to explore the region around the ascending channel’s upper boundary at the 1.1830 level.

The EUR/USD pair could test immediate support around the lower boundary of the ascending channel at 1.1400, followed by the nine-day EMA at the 1.1348 level. A break below this crucial support zone could weaken the bullish bias and put pressure on the pair to navigate the region around the 50-day EMA at the 1.0917 level.

EUR/USD drops to daily lows near 1.1630

EUR/USD now loses some traction and slips back to the area of daily lows around 1.1630 on the back of a mild bounce in the US Dollar. Fresh US data, including the September PCE inflation numbers and the latest read on December consumer sentiment, didn’t really move the needle, so the pair is still on course to finish the week with a respectable gain.

GBP/USD trims gains, recedes toward 1.3320

GBP/USD is struggling to keep its daily advance, coming under fresh pressure and retreating to the 1.3320 zone following a mild bullish attempt in the Greenback. Even though US consumer sentiment surprised to the upside, the US Dollar isn’t getting much love, as traders are far more interested in what the Fed will say next week.

Gold makes a U-turn, back to $4,200

Gold is now losing the grip and receding to the key $4,200 region per troy ounce following some signs of life in the Greenback and a marked bounce in US Treasury yields across the board. The positive outlook for the precious metal, however, remains underpinned by steady bets for extra easing by the Fed.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP pare gains despite increasing hopes of upcoming Fed rate cut

Bitcoin is steadying above $91,000 at the time of writing on Friday. Ethereum remains above $3,100, reflecting positive sentiment ahead of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) monetary policy meeting on December 10.

Week ahead – Rate cut or market shock? The Fed decides

Fed rate cut widely expected; dot plot and overall meeting rhetoric also matter. Risk appetite is supported by Fed rate cut expectations; cryptos show signs of life. RBA, BoC and SNB also meet; chances of surprises are relatively low.

Ripple faces persistent bear risks, shrugging off ETF inflows

Ripple is extending its decline for the second consecutive day, trading at $2.06 at the time of writing on Friday. Sentiment surrounding the cross-border remittance token continues to lag despite steady inflows into XRP spot ETFs.
