USD Holds Firm; EUR/USD, GBP/USD Trade in Tight Ranges Before Key Data
Major currency pairs remain confined within established ranges as the US dollar maintains its strength ahead of critical economic releases. EUR/USD continues to trade between 1.0600-1.0680, unable to break decisively in either direction despite multiple attempts. GBP/USD oscillates around 1.2650-1.2720, with Brexit-related uncertainties and UK economic concerns capping upside potential. USD/JPY holds steady near 152.00, while USD/CHF tests resistance at 0.9100. Market participants await this week's US inflation data and retail sales figures, which could provide the catalyst for range breakouts. Technical indicators suggest building pressure for directional moves, with EUR/USD's 100-day moving average at 1.0640 acting as a pivot point. Implied volatility remains subdued, indicating traders expect continued consolidation unless upcoming data significantly surprises market expectations.
