Commodities market summary: USD DXY and its impact on commodity trends

A focal point of our analysis revolves around the potential movement of the USD DXY. The pivotal question is whether the USD DXY will decline from its current level of 101, which holds the key to influencing other commodities and Forex markets, potentially driving them higher. Understanding the dynamics of the USD DXY is vital for making informed trading decisions in the commodities space.

Crude Oil's fascinating prospects

At present, Crude Oil has been surging, and it seems to be heading towards a significant resistance level at $80.00. This juncture has the potential to form a Classic TradingLevels pattern, specifically at the Major TradingLevel (TL8|80.00). Such patterns often signal crucial turning points and provide opportunities for long trades. As a result, traders should closely monitor Crude Oil's price action for the next potential trade setup.

Natural Gas: The next trend higher

Amidst the commodities landscape, Natural Gas is displaying promising signs as it aligns itself for a potential upward trend. As traders, we are keeping a close eye on this commodity, anticipating a favorable opportunity for long trades.

EUR/USD flirts with daily highs, retargets 1.1900

EUR/USD regains upside traction, returning to the 1.1880 zone and refocusing its attention to the key 1.1900 barrier. The pair’s slight gains comes against the backdrop of a humble decline in the US Dollar as investors continue to assess the latest US CPI readings and the potential Fed’s rate path.

GBP/USD remains well bid around 1.3650

GBP/USD maintains its upside momentum in place, hovering around daily highs near 1.3650 and setting aside part of the recent three-day drop. Cable’s improved sentiment comes on the back of the Greenback’s irresolute price action, while recent hawkish comments from the BoE’s Pill also collaborate with the uptick.

Gold clings to gains just above $5,000/oz

Gold is reclaiming part of the ground lost on Wednesday’s marked decline, as bargain-hunters keep piling up and lifting prices past the key $5,000 per troy ounce. The precious metal’s move higher is also underpinned by the slight pullback in the US Dollar and declining US Treasury yields across the curve.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP in choppy price action, weighed down by falling institutional interest

Bitcoin's upside remains largely constrained amid weak technicals and declining institutional interest. Ethereum trades sideways above $1,900 support with the upside capped below $2,000 amid ETF outflows.

Week ahead – Data blitz, Fed Minutes and RBNZ decision in the spotlight

US GDP and PCE inflation are main highlights, plus the Fed minutes. UK and Japan have busy calendars too with focus on CPI. Flash PMIs for February will also be doing the rounds. RBNZ meets, is unlikely to follow RBA’s hawkish path.

Ripple Price Forecast: XRP potential bottom could be in sight

Ripple edges up above the intraday low of $1.35 at the time of writing on Friday amid mixed price actions across the crypto market. The remittance token failed to hold support at $1.40 the previous day, reflecting risk-off sentiment amid a decline in retail and institutional sentiment.
