EUR/USD is consolidating for the sixth consecutive day. The common currency is capped by the 1.1220/55 resistances as well as the 50/100-day simple moving averages (DSMAs). The US said that some tariffs are to be delayed until December 15. The news sparked a risk-on environment as US stock indices leapt higher, safe-haven gold, yen and CHF sold-off and the greenback rose.

GBP/USD off highs, recedes to the sub-1.3500 area

Following earlier highs north of 1.3500 the figure, GBP/USD now faces some renewed downside pressure, revisiting the 1.3490 zone as the US Dollar manages to regain some upside impulse in the latter part of the NA session on Friday.
