Did You Miss It? Today's Biggest Market News

Market Overview

Analysis showed high accuracy, confirming primary biases for strong US Dollar and Precious Metals.

Precious Metals' "Strongly Bullish" forecasts were validated: Gold held near record highs, Silver surged in a single day. Safe-haven and industrial demand themes played out.

US Dollar dominance confirmed, leading to accurate Dollar pair performance: DXY confirmed Bullish, holding gains despite minor correction. USD/JPY, USD/CAD, USD/CHF confirmed Bullish/Strongly Bullish with significant upward moves to new medium-term highs. Commodity currencies AUD/USD and NZD/USD validated Bearish/Strongly Bearish, with NZD/USD hitting a 5-month low. EUR/USD followed its Ranging forecast, showing volatile, non-directional price action.

The sole miss was GBP/USD. Despite a previous day's fall to a 36-day low (validating bearish bias), it staged a significant Friday counter-trend rally, contradicting sustained Bearish expectation.

Overall Scorecard:

• Spot On / Accurate: Gold, Silver, DXY, AUD/USD, NZD/USD, EUR/USD (Ranging), USD/JPY, USD/CAD, USD/CHF
• Missed / Contradicted: GBP/USD (Friday counter-trend rally)

Market Analysis

GOLD Gold surged Friday, hitting $3,770.09 after weaker US Consumer Sentiment. Sentiment remains strongly bullish, driven by Fed cut expectations and weakening data. Price holds above $3,700.

Testing weekly channel top above $3,800 (major resistance). Near-term support at $3,703 (imbalance), $3,700 (psychological).

Bias: Strongly bullish; $3,800 pullback likely a buying opportunity.

SILVER Silver's price action is explosively bullish, outperforming gold with new highs. Sentiment is very strong, fueled by Fed cuts and surging industrial demand (green energy).

Resistance: $45.188 (previous high, immediate target). Support: $43.673.

Bias: Bullish (strong structural/fundamental drivers); caution advised due to overbought conditions.

DXY Dollar Index aggressively rallied past week, trading around 98.50 Friday, extending post-Fed gains. Sentiment turned dollar-positive/cautious amid high trade uncertainty (new US tariffs).

Bulls test 98.60 - 99.00 (channel resistance). Support near 98.00 (psychological), critical test at 97.70.

Bias: Bullish near term; sustained break below 97.70 flips bearish.

GBPUSD Cable under heavy selling, pushed to 1.3320 (September low). Bearish sentiment persists amid strong USD. Pair likely at/near oversold.

Support: 1.3320 (defended September low). Resistance: 1.3500 (bulls need to reclaim for relief).

Bias: Bearish; sellers control below 1.3500.

AUDUSD AUD/USD sharp downtrend, hitting new lows over two sessions due to strong USD demand. Sentiment bearish; traders reduce trade-sensitive AUD exposure amid rising trade tensions. Near oversold levels.

Support: 0.65200 (weekly low). Resistance: 0.66037 (recent high).

Bias: Bearish; oversold rebound possible, but short-term pressure remains.

NZDUSD NZD/USD failed at 0.5890, decisively breaking 0.5817 support last week. Sentiment heavily negative, sellers firmly control amid stronger USD. Deeply oversold.

Resistance: 0.5820 (failed support). Downside support: 0.5660 (3-month POC).

Bias: Strongly bearish; shorting favored below 0.5820.

EURUSD EUR/USD hit resistance Thursday (Feb trend line), suggesting ranging for coming sessions. Sentiment normalized neutral/ranging post-Fed volatility. Lack of strong direction implies neutral RSI.

Unfinished low (imbalance) at 1.15643 (magnet). Feb trend line (overhead resistance).

Bias: Ranging; range trading more profitable than early-week directional bets.

USDJPY USD/JPY continued strong upward trend, trading around 149.506. Sentiment bearish JPY, strongly bullish pair, as yield differentials dominate.

Support near 149.00 (previous breakout), then 148.558 (swing low). Resistance: 150.00 (psychological), target near 151.40.

Bias: Strongly bullish; likely to extend gains, test 150.00 if US data reinforces USD strength.

USDCHF USD/CHF strong rally all week to 0.8010 high, but Friday was bearish (profit-taking/correction). Sentiment remains bullish, driven by dollar-positive environment.

Support: 0.79574 (recent low). Resistance: 0.80140 (recent high).

Bias: Bullish; remains supported by broader USD strength.

USDCAD USD/CAD consolidated last session, upside momentum intact, near recent high. Sentiment neutral-to-bullish; traders expect further USD strength but near-term consolidation. RSI implies possible pullback.

Support: 1.3900, then 1.3850. Resistance: 1.4000 (psychological).

Bias: Strongly bullish; expect consolidation 1.3900–1.4000, potential breakout if US inflation surprises upside.
