EUR/USD licks its wounds at the lowest levels in a month, depressed around 1.0725 during early Tuesday in Asia. That said, the major currency pair dropped during the last consecutive three days.

Not only the three-day downtrend but the quote’s sustained downside break of an ascending trend line from early November join the bearish MACD signals and the downbeat RSI (14), not oversold, to keep sellers hopeful.

As a result, the EUR/USD pair’s further downside towards the 50-DMA, around 1.0690, appears imminent.

However, a three-month-long upward-sloping trend line, close to 1.0655 could challenge the EUR/USD bears afterward.

In a case where the EUR/USD pairs remain bearish past 1.0655, the previous monthly low near 1.0480 and the 200-DMA level surrounding 1.0320 will gain the market’s attention.

Alternatively, recovery remains elusive unless the quote stays below the support-turned-resistance line, around 1.0850.

Even so, multiple tops marked around 1.0930 appears more important as the validation point for the EUR/USD buyers.

Following that, a run-up towards the 1.1000 psychological magnet and then refreshing the monthly high, currently around 1.1030, can’t be ruled out.

Overall, EUR/USD is likely to remain bearish with the 50-DMA and ascending trend line from November 11 acting as immediate support to watch.

EUR/USD onsolidates around mid-1.1800s as traders keenly await FOMC Minutes

The EUR/USD pair struggles to capitalize on the previous day's goodish rebound from the 1.1800 neighborhood, or a one-and-a-half-week low, and consolidates in a narrow band during the Asian session on Wednesday. Spot prices currently trade just below mid-1.1800s, nearly unchanged for the day.

GBP/USD bounces off lows, retargets 1.3550

After bottoming out just below the 1.3500 yardstick, GBP/USD now gathers some fresh bids and advances to the 1.3530-1.3540 band in the latter part of Tuesday’s session. Cable’s recovery comes as the Greenback surrenders part of its advance, although it keeps the bullish bias well in place for the day.

Gold bounces back toward $4,900, looks to FOMC Minutes

Gold is attempting a bounce from the $4,850 level, having touched a one-week low on Tuesday. Signs of progress in US–Iran talks dented demand for the traditional safe-haven bullion, weighing on Gold in early trades. However, rising bets for more Fed rate cuts keep the US Dollar bulls on the defensive and act as a tailwind for the non-yielding yellow metal. Traders now seem reluctant ahead of the FOMC Minutes, which would offer cues about the Fed's rate-cut path and provide some meaningful impetus.
