EUR/USD Price Analysis: Still room for a drop to the 2022 low

EUR/USD gathers extra downside traction and breaches 0.9700.
A deeper retracement could expose a move to the YTD low.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/USD drops for the fourth consecutive session and revisits the sub-0.9700 region at the beginning of the week.

Further losses appear well on the cards for the time being. Against that, the pair should not meet any contention of note until the 2022 low at 0.9535 (September 28) prior to the round level at 0.9500.

In the longer run, the pair’s bearish view should remain unaltered while below the 200-day SMA at 1.0608.

AUD/USD holds rebound near 0.6900 on US-China trade optimism

AUD/USD holds the rebound near 0.6900 in the Asian session on Monday. Mixed China's inflation data for October fails to provide any inspiration to the Chinese proxy, the Australian Dollar, but China's extension of the suspension of 24% tariffs on US goods and reduced US-Iran tensions help the Aussie pair cling to recovery gains.

USD/JPY retreat in sync with USD, appraches 158.00

USD/JPY is back in the red at the start of the week on Monday, eyeing the broad US Dollar retreat amid easing US-Iran tensions. Traders also resorting to profit-taking following the blockbuster US Nonfarm Payrolls data-led rally. US CPI report is next in focus.

Gold holds gains near $4,100 as risk appetite hits the USD

Gold (XAU/USD) shows moderate gains on Monday, reversing Friday’s losses, and consolidating last week’s recovery, with price action levels just below $4.100 and last week’s highs, in the $4,150 area on the bulls’ focus.

Solana: Persistent ETF outflows extend downside risk in SOL

Solana trades below $90 on Monday, ticking higher after over 3% losses below a long-term support trendline the previous day. SOL has been steadily declining over the last five weeks, aligning with five straight weekly outflows from Solana-focused Exchange-Traded Funds totaling over $150 million.

Economics week ahead

This week, attention turns to Tuesday’s CPI report, with no year-over-year readings available because of last October’s shutdown-related data gap. We expect headline and core inflation to clock 0.28% and 0.21% month-over-month, respectively. Softer core inflation would offer some relief after September’s upside surprise but should still leave our call for a December rate hike intact.

US Dollar breaks below 101.50 as Democrats sweep Congress
