USDOLLAR(Ticker: USDollar):
Despite mixed batch of U.S. data, downside targets remain favorable ahead of final 1Q GDP (-1.8%) as price & RSI retain bearish setup.
Next downside level of interest comes in around 10,406, the 1.618% Fib expansion from the August decline.
May (10,370) & October (10,354) remain the bigger figures to watch as USDOLLAR remains at risk for lower-lows.
EUR/USD:
Monthly range in focus as pair threatens downward trending channel.
Former support around 1.3670-80 (61.8% retracement) may act as new resistance.
Failure to carve fresh monthly highs/lows to highlight range-bound prices ahead of European Central Bank’s (ECB) July 3 meeting.
AUD/JPY
Continues to mark string of failed attempts to close above 96.00.
Downside targets in focus as bearish RSI momentum continues to take shape.
Former resistance around 95.10-20 (61.8% retracement & 50.0% expansion) seen as interim support.
