EUR/USD licks its wounds at the lowest levels in a month, depressed around 1.0725 during early Tuesday in Asia. That said, the major currency pair dropped during the last consecutive three days.

Not only the three-day downtrend but the quote’s sustained downside break of an ascending trend line from early November join the bearish MACD signals and the downbeat RSI (14), not oversold, to keep sellers hopeful.

As a result, the EUR/USD pair’s further downside towards the 50-DMA, around 1.0690, appears imminent.

However, a three-month-long upward-sloping trend line, close to 1.0655 could challenge the EUR/USD bears afterward.

In a case where the EUR/USD pairs remain bearish past 1.0655, the previous monthly low near 1.0480 and the 200-DMA level surrounding 1.0320 will gain the market’s attention.

Alternatively, recovery remains elusive unless the quote stays below the support-turned-resistance line, around 1.0850.

Even so, multiple tops marked around 1.0930 appears more important as the validation point for the EUR/USD buyers.

Following that, a run-up towards the 1.1000 psychological magnet and then refreshing the monthly high, currently around 1.1030, can’t be ruled out.

Overall, EUR/USD is likely to remain bearish with the 50-DMA and ascending trend line from November 11 acting as immediate support to watch.

EUR/USD trims losses, flirts with the 1.1850 zone

EUR/USD is back on the back foot on Wednesday, slipping below the 1.1850 area as the US Dollar picks up some modest traction. The move comes as traders position ahead of a busy run of US data and the release of the FOMC Minutes. Adding to the pullback are reports that the ECB’s Lagarde may step down before completing her term.

GBP/USD flirts with daily highs near 1.3580

GBP/USD manages to set aside two consecutive daily declines and trades with slight gains in the 1.3580 zone on Wednesday. Cable’s uptick comes despite acceptable gains in the Greenback and easing UK inflation figures, which seem to have reinforced the case for a BoE rate cut in March.

Gold regains some shine, retargets $5,000 ahead of FOMC Minutes

Gold gathers fresh upside traction on Wednesday, leaving part of the weakness seen at the beginning of the week and refocusing its attention to the key $5,000 mark per troy ounce, all ahead of the release of the FOMC Minutes and despite the modest uptick in the US Dollar.

Pi Network rally defies market pressure ahead of its first anniversary

Pi Network is trading above $0.1900 at press time on Wednesday, extending the weekly gains by nearly 8% so far. The steady recovery is supported by a short-term pause in mainnet migration, which reduces pressure on the PI token supply for Centralized Exchanges. The technical outlook focuses on the $0.1919 resistance as bullish momentum increases.

Mixed UK inflation data no gamechanger for the Bank of England

Food inflation plunged in January, but service sector price pressure is proving stickier. We continue to expect Bank of England rate cuts in March and June. The latest UK inflation read is a mixed bag for the Bank of England, but we doubt it drastically changes the odds of a March rate cut.

Top 3 Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple face downside risk as bears regain control
