The EUR/USD currency pair
Indicadores técnicos do par de moedas:
- Anterior Abrir: 1.1778
- Anterior Fechar: 1.1771
- % de mudança no último dia: -0.06%
During the shortened holiday week, the euro held above $1.17 amid divergent expectations regarding ECB and Fed monetary policies. At its last meeting, the ECB left rates unchanged for the fourth time and emphasized they will likely remain at current levels, noting that the Eurozone economy has handled US tariffs better than expected. Recent data prompted the ECB to raise its 2025 growth projections from 1.2% to 1.4%. Simultaneously, soft US inflation data boosted expectations for potential Fed rate cuts next year, providing additional support to the single currency. The combination of stable Eurozone economic dynamics and weak US inflationary pressure creates a positive backdrop for the euro in the short term.

The euro price has dipped below 1.1768; it is now crucial for buyers to prevent the price from consolidating below 1.1758. Otherwise, a sharp sell-off to 1.1707 could occur. Traders should adopt a wait-and-see approach. A price consolidation above 1.1768 will open opportunities for renewed buying.

The GBP/USD currency pair
Indicadores técnicos do par de moedas:
- Anterior Abrir: 1.3523
- Anterior Fechar: 1.3497
- % de mudança no último dia: -0.19 %
The British pound rose above $1.35, hitting a three-month high, driven by a weakening US dollar and expectations of at least two Fed rate cuts next year, which reduces the yield advantage of the American currency. Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey stressed that subsequent rate cuts would be moderate, though the market anticipates more aggressive steps. The UK economy shows moderate growth: Q3 GDP increased by 0.1%, meeting expectations, while the outlook for the final quarter remains neutral. Despite this, the pound has shown impressive momentum, strengthening more than 2% this month and about 8% year-to-date, marking its best annual performance against the dollar since 2017.
Recomendações de negociação
- Níveis de suporte: 1.3473, 1.3445, 1.3347, 1.3354, 1.3292, 1.3268, 1.3156
- Níveis de resistência: 1.3526, 1.3586
As expected, the British pound has trended sideways in the 1.3473-1.3526 range, and it will likely remain in this corridor until the end of the year. It is important for traders to evaluate the price reaction at the lower boundary of 1.3473. If buyers show initiative on lower time frames, this will open buying opportunities. There are currently no optimal entry points for selling.
Cenário alternativo:- Trend: Up
- Sup: 1.3473
- Res: 1.3526
- Note: Looking for buy trades from the 1.3473 support level, but with confirmation.

The USD/JPY currency pair
Indicadores técnicos do par de moedas:
- Anterior Abrir: 155.89
- Anterior Fechar: 156.56
- % de mudança no último dia: +0.43 %
On Monday, the Japanese yen strengthened past the 156 mark per dollar. Investors scrutinized the minutes from the December meeting, which show the regulator continues to discuss further policy tightening following the recent rate hike to a multi-decade high. Some committee members noted that monetary policy remains loose in real terms and advocated for gradual rate hikes to mitigate inflationary risks. Others emphasized that excessively low rates contribute to yen weakness and rising long-term yields, whereas timely tightening could stabilize the bond market and anchor inflation expectations.
Recomendações de negociação
- Níveis de suporte: 156.07, 155.69, 154.92, 154.41, 154.17
- Níveis de resistência: 156.71, 157.78, 159.47
After testing the 156.71 resistance, the Japanese yen strengthened to the 156.07 support level. A retest of this level is undesirable for buyers, as it would significantly increase the likelihood of a further decline to 155.69. It is important for traders to gauge the price reaction at 156.07. If buyers show initiative again, short-term buy trades can be considered intraday, but with short targets, as the intraday bias today favors sellers.
Cenário alternativo:- Trend: Neutral
- Sup: 156.07
- Res: 156.71
- Note: Considering buys from 156.07 but with a tight stop-loss. There are currently no optimal entry points for selling.

On Monday, gold corrected toward the $4,500 per ounce level but remained near all-time highs amid persistent geopolitical uncertainty and expectations of further US monetary easing.

Gold has reached another optional (psychological) level of 4550. This is precisely where buyers began taking profits. A MACD divergence formed since last Wednesday already hinted at a correction. Intraday, buys can be considered from 4500, provided there is a reaction from buyers. A break below the trend line could trigger a wave of selling.
Cenário alternativo:- Trend: Up
- Sup: 4500
- Res: 4550
- Note: Considering buy deals from 4500, but with confirmation. A move lower could trigger a strong sell-off.
