    EURUSD – Down With Strong US Data But Still Close To 1.10

    The US Non-Farm Employment Report, which we followed on the last trading day of the week, came in well above the expectations. Both unemployment rate, employment change and average hourly earnings were quite high. This data is also important in terms of being a nurturing data for the inflation trend. After this data, the possibility that the FED will not continue to increase interest rates in June is still strong and has not changed. However, the statements of FOMC members and inflation data will be critical in the future.

    The EURUSD parity declined below 1.10 after this strong data and fell below the 1.10 level as the evening hours approached. It is just near 1.0980, the intraday interim support. The main support is 1.0920

    Above, our main resistance is 1.1065.

    GBPUSD – Continuing in favor of Sterling Test 1.2620 Resistance…

    The pair, which was in the range of 1.2530/1.2375, broke this horizontal range upwards and rose towards the level of 1.2620. This is an important technical resistance as the previously 1.2445/1.1830 horizontal zone coincides with the Fibonacci 127.2 retracement. As long as it does not fall below 1.2530 again, we can expect the rise to continue step by step.

    Ounce Gold – US Non-Farm Data Caused Over-Purchases to Be Returned…

    In the night after the FED, it instantly jumped up to 2079 in the Asian session. However, the subsequent corrections and reactions were limited. Today’s very strong US Non-Farm jobs data has reversed this overbought movement and the yellow metal is pushing below the 2002 support.

    At the same time, it is preparing to re-enter the narrowing triangle structure that it came out of this week. If it can hold in 2002, it can still be positive in terms of image. However, under 2002, selling pressure may gradually strengthen.
