According to the decision taken after the FED, the volatility may increase. It will be a day to be careful.

EUR/USD – FED Decisions Could Open the Way for Volatility Storm…
While the decisive statements of the European Central Bank in the fight against inflation brought the Euro side to remain strong, the rescue efforts of Credit Suisse for now support the Euro. However, we will continue to monitor the news feeds.
The pair closed yesterday above the 1.0735 resistance and very close to 1.08. 1.08 continues to be tested today. Closes above 1.08 may make the movement in favor of the Euro stronger in the pair. However, we continue to watch the uptrend line from 0.9550 as the main support for possible movements in favor of the dollar.
The FED decision tonight at 21.00 (GMT+3) will definitely increase the volatility in the parity, so the levels we have stated during the day are important, but after 21.00 (GMT+3), the FED decisions will be more critical.

XAU/USD – Post-FED 1935/1945 Squeeze Could Be Broken…
After running the shoulder head and shoulders formation, which is more clearly visible on the yellow metal hourly chart, it regressed to the 1935 support. With this regression, he made the Fibonacci 38.2 correction of the 1808/2010 rise, which took place in a short time.
During the day, it was priced at around $10 margin above the 1935 support. Therefore, there is some positive dissonance in the RSI on the hourly chart, but as long as the RSI does not rise above the 50 level on the hourly chart, this current dissonance may come to naught. At this point, 1945 will be the first intermediate resistance level. But we would like to point out that the main resistance was 1962.
If the correction of the 1808/2010 rise continues, 1913 and 1882 levels may come to the fore in the breakdown of 1935.

GBP/USD – The Recent Rising is Protected by 1.22 Support…
The pair is stuck in the Fibonacci 78.6 and 61.8 range of the 1.2455/1.1830 drop. As of the FED, this three-day squeeze may be broken due to the dollar leg. However, for now, holding above 1.22 in general seems to be positive for movements in favor of Sterling. This image might get stronger over 1.23. We will follow this.
On the weekly side, the main resistance is the 1.2455 high on January 23 and the main support is the 1.1830 support on March 8.
