GBP/USD Price Analysis: Buyers stay hopeful above 1.3195 support confluence

GBP/USD prints four-day winning streak, recently picking up bids from 1.3144.
10-day SMA, two-week-old rising trend line offer near-term strong support.
Monthly top, September high stay on the bulls’ radars.

GBP/USD ticks up to 1.3260, gaining 0.06% intraday, during the pre-Tokyo open trading on Wednesday. In doing so, the Cable keeps Friday’s recovery moves from 10-day SMA and an ascending trend line from November 02 amid bullish MACD signals.

GBP/USD buyers currently eye the 1.3300 round-figure ahead of targeting the monthly peak surrounding 1.3315.

During the quote’s sustained rise past-1.3315, the 1.3400 threshold can offer an intermediate halt before propelling the bulls toward September’s high near 1.3485.

Alternatively, a daily closing below 1.3195 support joint can quickly challenge the previous week’s low near 1.3105.

Though, the 1.3100 mark may stop the GBP/USD bears from attacking the monthly low of 1.2854.

EUR/USD seems fragile below 1.1700 as Middle East war boosts energy prices

The EUR/USD pair trades flat at around 1.1680 during the Asian trading session on Tuesday, but broadly seems vulnerable, being close to its five-week low.

Gold weakens below $5,300 as sustained USD buying counter Middle East tensions

Gold attracts some intraday selling and falls around $100 from the daily top, around the $5,380 area. The US Dollar climbs to a fresh high since January 20 and turns out to be a key factor exerting downward pressure on the commodity. However, concerns about a broader regional conflict in the Middle East continue to weigh on investors' sentiment and underpin demand for the traditional safe-haven bullion.

Stellar risks deeper losses as derivatives metrics turn negative

Stellar is trading red below $0.16 at the time of writing on Tuesday, after a slight recovery the previous day. Weakening derivatives data caps the recovery, while an unfavorable technical outlook projects a deeper correction for the XLM token in the upcoming days.

The market is not panicking it is repricing the probability distribution of Oil and time

At the end of the day, markets do not trade morality or geopolitics. They trade transmission channels. And the only channel that truly matters in this maelstrom runs through the price of energy and the time value of money.
