This signals scope for a climb towards 0.8592 next, a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, support to watch lies at 0.8465, the 50-day EMA. Clearance of this level would instead highlight a possible reversal. Support at the 20-day EMA is at 0.8488.

FOREX: US Dollar Extending Intra-Day Reversal Lower

Jun-23 17:46
  • The intra-day reversal lower for the greenback is extending, as the USD index now trades through last Friday’s lows, roughly 1% below the earlier session highs. Lower oil prices and resilient equity benchmarks are assisting the renewed USD weakness, despite the plethora of headlines crossing surrounding Iran’s launch of missile attacks towards a US air base in Qatar.
  • The likes of GBPUSD (+0.50%) and EURUSD (+0.36%) are leading the charge within the G10 complex. For EURUSD, the bullish trend remains firmly in place and scope remains seen for a climb towards 1.1696, a Fibonacci projection. Recovering global sentiment has tilted the likes of AUD and NZD back to unchanged on the day after being the standout laggards earlier on Monday.
  • Euro resilience has also been notable against the crosses with the likes of EURAUD and EURNZD holding onto 0.5% gains on the session.
  • JPY volatility has not disappointed, although the Japanese currency has followed the broader dollar trend rather than being impacted by safe haven flows. Initially, USDJPY rose as high as 148.03, which may have been exacerbated by positioning dynamics. However, since then, the pair tracks around 180 pips lower, and is edging towards the overnight lows at the 146.00 handle. Below here, support to watch lies at 145.08, the 50-day EMA.
  • The main beneficiary on Monday has been the Swiss Franc, as USDCHF falls 0.67% and edges back towards 0.8100, while CHFJPY has appreciated 0.76%. Earlier in the session spot printed up to 180.88, record highs for the cross.
  • Focus on the data calendar tomorrow will be on German IFO, Canada CPI and US consumer confidence. Fed Chair Powell will also deliver his congressional testimony.
