The following are the most recent pieces of Forex technical analysis from around the world. The Forex technical analysis below covers the various currencies on the market and the most recent trends, technical indicators, as well as resistance and support levels.
The Light Sweet Crude Oil market has been a bit positive for the month of January, but quite frankly we have been bouncing from a very oversold position. Because of this, I don't read too much into the positivity other than we had tested a major support level in the form of $55 recently and have recovered.
The USD/JPY is near the 153.325 ratio as of this writing, this after a full month of tumultuous trading in the currency pair which has led to widespread accusations and rumors regarding price fluctuations.
BTC/USD as of this writing is floundering above the 88,000.00 mark and has shown some downwards motion the past week that may look concerning to some of its backers.
From a technical analysis standpoint, the 1.3550 level begins pretty significant support all the way down to 1.3450. However, this session could see fireworks.
Silver has been very noisy during early hours on Wednesday, as we continue to see a lot of volatility. However, the overall attitude at this point in time remains bullish as per usual.
The British pound initially fell a bit during the trading session on Wednesday, only to see buyers at the same place again. This market continues to show resilience, and stability, despite the noise in the markets overall.
The Euro against the Swiss Franc is a market that I am watching closely at the moment, as the Swiss National Bank could intervene.
The EUR/USD exchange rate rose to the important resistance level at 1.2000 for the first time in years after the Federal Reserve delivered its first interest rate decision of the year. It was trading at 1.1950 on Thursday morning, a few points below this week's high of 1.2087.
The German DAX has dipped a little bit during the trading session, as we are still looking for momentum, and the FOMC is likely to provide that globally. With this, the market looks like it is trying to launch higher again.
The Australian dollar has been somewhat noisy against the Canadian dollar during trading on Wednesday, as the Bank of Canada took center stage. That being said, nothing significantly changed as far as the “big picture” is concerned.
Bitcoin is currently caught between a couple of massive driving forces, as we are trying to sort out where risk appetite is going globally. This continues to be a noisy place to trade, but it is now offering a well-defined range.
The FTSE 100 has retreated on Wednesday from its intraday highs as risk-off rotation in London has shifted capital elsewhere. However, the overall trend is still strong at this point.
Bitcoin price continued its consolidation on Thursday after the Federal Reserve delivered its interest rate decision and as ETF outflows continues. The BTC/USD pair was trading at 89,000 on Thursday, inside a range it has been in the past few days.
The gold market continues to rise overall, as the US dollar weakness continues to favor a rising metals market. That being said, we are still waiting for the Fed.
The AUD/USD exchange rate continued its strong upward trend, reaching its highest level since November January 2023, after the Federal Reserve interest rate decision and the strong Australian inflation data. It rose to a high of 0.7017, much higher than last year's low of 0.5915.
