EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Targets the 21-day SMA at 1.1000 in the near term

EUR/USD is looking to extend the recovery from recent YTD lows in the 1.0880 region, although strong resistance emerged in the 1.0950/60 band.
That said, a breakout of this area should expose the minor hurdle at the 21-day SMA at 1.10.
Further up aligns the critical short-term resistance line, today at 1.1033. The pair needs to clear this zone in order to alleviate the downside pressure somewhat.

GBP/USD: Daily gains remain capped by 1.3650

GBP/USD leaves behind Monday’s pessimism and advances marginally on Tuesday. Cable’s humble gains, however, appear to have met quite a decent resistance in the 1.3650 zone for now, in a context of a slight selling pressure hovering around the Greenback.

EUR/USD struggles to regain pace; gyrates around 1.1670

EUR/USD clinches humble gains around 1.1670 following Tuesday’s close on Wall Street. Indeed, marginal losses in the US Dollar encourages spot to set aside two dauly pullbacks in a row and maintain the 1.1700 barrier on the cross-hairs for now. Moving forward, US inflation tracked by the PCE and another revision of Q2 GDP data should keep investors entertained on Wednesday.

Gold: Buyers still hold the grip

Gold navigates the middle of its daily range near $4,650 per troy ounce on Tuesday. The lack of clear direction in the yellow metal comes on the back of the widespread cautious tone among market participants, a mildly offered stance in the US Dollar and a marked decline in US Treasury yields across the curve.

Australia CPI expected to show inflation easing in July

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) will publish the July Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday at 01:30 GMT. The report is expected to show that inflation rose 3.2% from a year earlier, easing from the 3.8% posted in June. The monthly CPI, however, is forecast at 0.8% following the -0.1% print from the previous month.
