Markets Strategist Quek Ser Leang at UOB Group notes USD/THB faces a solid barrier at the 34.20 level.

Key Quotes

“Last Monday (07 Feb, spot at 33.62), we highlighted that ‘deeply overbought conditions suggest USD/THB could consolidate for a couple of days first before heading higher’. While USD/THB subsequently consolidated, it did not make any headway on the upside. That said, short-term upward momentum is beginning to build and the bias for USD/THB this week is tilted to the upside.”

“Overall, barring a breach of 33.35 (minor support is at 33.55), the chance of USD/THB breaking 34.00 is increasing. Looking ahead, the next resistance above 34.00 is at 34.20.”

Gold bleeding continues as Middle East crisis escalates, Fed hike coming

Gold is accelerating its downward trends and approaches the area of $4,100 per troy ounce on Wednesday, where the 2026 bottom sits so far.

$1,500: Why Ethereum just crashed 20% despite spot markets barely selling

Ethereum (ETH) recently suffered one of its sharpest declines of 2026, dropping more than 20% and briefly testing the $1,500 area. While the sell-off appeared to reflect broader market fears, derivatives and on-chain data suggest a more complex story may be unfolding beneath the surface.

Brutal sell-off: Silver deepens months-long slide, refocusing on $60

Silver has never been known for its calm temperament. The precious metal can spend weeks grinding higher before suddenly giving back months of gains in a matter of days. That volatile reputation has been on full display in recent weeks.
