EURUSD – Although Reactions Continue, Important Resistances Have Not Been Passed Yet…
While we continue to monitor the reactions from 1.0490 in the parity, we are still under important resistances in the short term. The 1.0630 level is the first area that may be important resistance in the short term. Above this region, the 1.0765 resistance, which coincides with the 200-day average, is an important resistance on a weekly basis.
Although the slight decrease in the PCE price index data for August today created a slight relief on the parity side, it did not have much of an impact.
In general, as long as the resistances we have specified on a short and weekly basis are not exceeded, reactions from the oversold zone are normal and may create a resale opportunity.
XAUUSD
Ounce Gold – Selling Pressure Continues, 1860 Resistance Is Being Tested…
The yellow metal closed the day near this region yesterday after retreating to the 1860 support. Although there is a slight reaction during the day due to the loosening of the dollar index, these reactions are very weak. It continues to be priced close to the 1860 support. For a small recovery, we must see at least a hold above 1890.
Otherwise, a step-by-step retreat towards the 1810 level may be observed.

BRENT – Profit from Fibo 50 Correction Stopped Selling at 94.85…
BRENT, which came very close to the 97.60 resistance during the week, encountered resistance due to the Fibonacci 50% correction and fell to the 94.85 support with profit selling. Although there was a weak movement on the last trading day of the week, it remains at the 94.85 support level. Unless the 91.05 support is broken on a weekly basis, possible declines may create an opportunity for repurchasing, but profit sales below 91.05 may find room to deepen.
