AUD/USD accelerates the decline below 0.7000
The late rebound in the Greenback has prompted the AUD/USD’s selling pressure to gather extra steam on Wednesday, sending spot to the mid-0.6900s for the first time since late July. In addition, inflation figures in Oz failed to surprise markets, leaving the pair vulnerable to extra weakness. On Thursday, the focus of attention on the domestic calendar will be on the release of the trade balance results in August.
EUR/USD: Door open to a test of 1.1300?
EUR/USD could not sustain the post-US PCE bull run to the 1.1380 region, receding toward the 1.1330 zone, or multi-week troughs, following the closing bell on Wall Street on Wednesday. Indeed, the late bounce in the US Dollar has kept the bearish trend in spot unchanged ahead of key US date releases and Fedspeak on Thursday.
Gold meets resistance just above $4,200
Gold now makes a U-turn and recedes toward the $4,150 region per troy ounce on Wednesday. Indeed, the precious metal fades the earlier move past the key $4,200 yardstick and retreats marginally as the US Dollar trims part of its daily losses amid mixed US Treasury yields.

The Federal Reserve (Fed) and the Bank of Japan (BoJ) have just done something remarkably similar. Both central banks raised interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) last week, both are confronting inflation risks, and both signal that future decisions will depend on incoming economic data.

Nasdaq 100 rebound looks strong… or is it just a trap?
The Nasdaq 100 spent the past few sessions recovering strongly from its November lows, rebounding from 24,307 and climbing back into the 25,100–25,150 mid-range zone. While the candles look convincing, the broader picture reveals a different story: the index remains trapped inside a 4H range structure.
