Key Points
- Macro markets reacted strongly to tariff news.
- USD/JPY has seen a robust rally after testing key support levels.
- EUR/USD is currently testing vital Fibonacci supports around 1.0943.
Current Market Overview
After a steep drop last Thursday, the Dollar is almost back to pre-tariff levels. The USD/JPY has shown strength by holding above crucial support at 145.00, indicating potential for further gains.
On the other hand, EUR/USD broke out of previous resistance but faced a slight pullback as it tests the Fibonacci levels.
Opinion & Analysis
