EUR/USD technical analysis: Eyes 1.10 after Dragonfly Doji

EUR/USD created a Dragonfly Doji on Tuesday - an early sign of bullish reversal.
The pair could rise to 1.10 today, but a close above 1.0926 is needed to abort the bearish view.

EUR/USD is mildly bid at press time and could rise to 1.10 as technical charts are flashing early signs of a bullish trend reversal.

For instance, the pair created a bullish Dragonfly Doji candle on Tuesday, which occurs when the opening and closing prices are nearly identical with little or no candle body.

A Dragonfly Doji occurring after an established downtrend is widely taken as a sign of impending bearish-to-bullish trend change.

In EUR's case, the candlestick pattern snapped the six-day losing streak and could fuel a corrective bounce. That said, the bearish outlook would be invalidated if the pair manages to end the day above the former support-turned-resistance of 1.0926 (Aug. 1 low).

The bearish view would be bolstered if the pair closes today below 1.0926 (Dragonfly Doji's low).

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.
