USDOLLAR(Ticker: USDollar):
Dow Jones-FXCM U.S. Dollar Index continues to carve lower highs & lows as it slips to 10,382.
RSI retains bearish momentum; break below 40 continues to favor downside targets.
Despite the positive data prints, focus remains on Non-Farm Payrolls (+210K) as Fed retains dovish tone for monetary policy.
May (10,370) & October (10,354) remain in focus as USDOLLAR fails to hold 10,406 (1.618% Fibonacci expansion).

GBP/USD:
Rallies to fresh monthly high of 1.7112 despite slowdown in U.K. Mortgage Approvals (61.7K).
Will continue to look for a series of higher highs & lows in July as Bank of England (BoE) continues to show greater willingness to normalize monetary policy sooner rather than later.
Next key level of interest comes in at 1.7110-20 (78.6% Fib expansion from March advance).

AUD/JPY
Bounces back from near-term support (95.10-20) ahead of the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) policy meeting.
Remains capped by 96.00 following the string of failed attempts to close above the key figure; bearish RSI momentum remains in play.
RBA is widely expected to keep the benchmark interest rate at 2.50%; focus turns to verbal intervention.
