1. Forex Market Insight  

EUR/USD 

The euro-weighted dollar index rose was driven by the euro’s decline. Meanwhile, European Central Bank President Lagarde continued to dampen market bets on tightening.  

Lagarde said supply chain bottlenecks and soaring energy costs are slowing eurozone growth and will keep inflation high for longer than previously expected. Lagarde “reiterated the dovish outlook of policymakers”, which has limited the euro. 

 Through this, the euro fell 0.77% against the dollar to 1.1356, the lowest level since July 2020, and ended the day down 0.67% at 1.1368.  

Technical Analysis： 

(EUR/USD 1-hour chart) 

Execution Insight: 

Today, pay attention to the 1.1501-line. If the euro runs steadily below the 1.1501-line, maintain the bearish trend. Below, pay attention to the support at 1.1357 and 1.1278. If the strength of the euro breaks through the 1.150-line, it will open up a further upside. At that time, focus on the suppression of the two positions at 1.1535 and 1.1583. 

GBP Intraday Trend Analysis 

Fundamental Analysis： 

The pound was basically flat against the U.S. dollar, ending the day at 1.3416. The euro sold against the pound after the Bank of England policy member’s speech, and U.K. government bond yields moved higher.

There will be a lot of data coming out of the U.K. this week, with employment, inflation and retail sales data expected to provide clues about whether the BoE will raise interest rates in December as the market expects. On Friday, 12th November 2021, the pound touched its lowest level against the dollar this year.

2. Precious Metals Market Insight

 

Gold 

Fundamental Analysis: 

The dollar index touched a 16-month high yesterday, 15th November 2021. Driven by global growth, inflation worries and monetary policy expectations, investors await this week’s release of U.S. consumer spending data.

Gold futures closed slightly lower, ending a previous seven-session run of gains, as the dollar and U.S. bond yields climbed, putting pressure on gold prices.

U.S. oil ended yesterday’s trading up by $0.16, or 0.2%, to close at $80.95 per barrel. The Brent oil was flat, closing at $82.11/barrel.
