BTCUSD extended its rally before paring recent gains. The higher swing points and the widening gap between both EMAs indicate its strong bullish momentum. If BTCUSD rebounds above 90000, the price could rise towards the resistance at 95000. Conversely, a break below 90000 could prompt a deeper retracement to the ascending trendline and support at 85000.
USOIL consolidated within 67.00 - 69.00 while sustaining the trend. The bearish EMAs indicate the potential downtrend extension. If USOIL breaks above 69.00, coinciding with EMA21 and the 38.2% Fibonacci Retracement, the price could rise to 72.00. Conversely, a break below 67.00 could prompt a decline toward the channel's lower bound and its support near 65.00.

Conversely, if USDJPY fails to hold above EMA21, the price may fall to 153.10, coinciding with EMA78.
After extending its plunge, GBPUSD consolidated within the 1.2715- 1.2765 range before breaking below it. The price movement shows a potential slowdown in momentum.

Gold prices fell for the fourth consecutive trading day amid rising dollar and treasury yields. The US Oct CPI data had little impact as Trump's policy expectations continued dominating market directions. Unless economic data drastically changes against market expectations, policy outlook will continue to dominate gold prices, keeping the high volatility.
Gold prices meet͏ more selling push with strong U. S. dollar, driven by hope about Donald Trump’s likely growth plans and his suggested 10% import tax which might raise costs and hold back the Federal Reserve's ability to cut rates. This has helped boost higher U. S. Treasury yields, drawing investors away from the non-yielding gold. Traders are cautious ahead of...
