USD/IDR Technical Analysis: Sellers look for entry below monthly trendline, 50-DMA

  • USD/IDR registers the third day of declines.
  • Mid-November lows will be on bear’s radar during further declines.
  • Buyers will wait unless clearing 50% Fibonacci retracement of August-September fall.

USD/IDR drops to 14,090 by the press time of early Thursday in Asia. The pair is on the third day of losing streak but stays above near-term key support confluence.

Unless providing a clear break below 14,087/85 area including a month-long rising support line and 50-Day Simple Moving Average (DMA), prices can keep the monthly upward trajectory that leads to 50% Fibonacci retracement level of 14,130.

It’s worth mentioning that 61.8% Fibonacci retracement near 14,180 and October top close to 14,215 will be the Bull’s favorite during pair’s rise past-14,130.

On the contrary, a daily closing below 14,085 could drag prices to multiple lows marked in mid-November around 14,030 ahead of shifting focus to 14,000 round-figure.

Further, the November month low near 13,965 and September bottom close to 13,910 could lure bears afterward.

AUD/USD sits at three-week highs above 0.7000 on hawkish RBA-speak

AUD/USD holds a positive bias for the fourth straight day, trading above 0.7000 in the Asian session on Wednesday and at three-week highs. RBA Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser's hawkish remarks and inflation concerns underpin the pair. However, the upside appears capped as the US Dollar attracts some buyers amid looming US-Iran uncertainty.

USD/JPY remains confined in a familiar range below 158.50

USD/JPY sees some dip-buying in the Asian session on Wednesday, though it remains confined within a multi-week range near 158.50 as the uncertainty over the timing of the next BoJ rate hike keeps Japanese Yen bulls on the defensive. Meanwhile, hawkish Fed expectations, bolstered by inflation risks stemming from volatile oil prices, underpin the US Dollar. However, looming intervention fears could limit JPY losses and cap the currency pair.

Gold struggles near weekly low near $4,100 amid USD bounce

Gold remains depressed for the fourth straight day, flirting with the weekly low during Wednesday’s Asian session, with bears awaiting a sustained break below $4,100 before placing fresh bets. Energy-driven inflation fears keep Fed hike bets firmly on the table, reviving US Dollar demand and undermining the non-yielding bullion. However, an unconfirmed report of US-Iran diplomacy could cap the safe-haven buck, which could offer some support to the precious metal.

Ethereum bounces off $2,400 for a sixth day despite ETF outflows
Ethereum (ETH) bounced again near the $2,400 level on Tuesday, the sixth straight day, as its on-chain cost basis and key moving averages have stood as key support levels. The sub-$2,400 level has proven to be a strong support for the top altcoin over the past week amid macro pressures. Buyers have repeatedly stepped in to defend prices whenever it falls below the level.
UK CPI set to accelerate, paving the way for a BoE interest rate hike in November

The United Kingdom Office for National Statistics is expected to release September’s Consumer Price Index on Wednesday at 06:00 GMT. These figures will be accompanied by the Producer Price Index and the Retail Sales report.

The US Dollar fell. Gold didn't rally. That tells you everything
Gold (XAU/USD) is struggling to capitalize on a weaker US Dollar (USD), after repeatedly failing to establish itself above the $4,200 level. The precious metal remains confined to a relatively narrow trading range despite a combination of developments that would normally support higher prices.
