EURO SELLING PICKS UP AHEAD OF NFP DATA
The euro continues to sell-off into the weekend as the bearish trend shows little sign of abating. Euro woes continue to stack up with the latest concern being the scheduled maintenance of the Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline that facilitates the flow of natural gas from Russia to Germany and then into the EU. The pipeline is scheduled to undergo routine maintenance from the 11th to the 21st of July.

The pipeline has been identified as a major potential risk to the German economy and the EU by extension, should Russia stop transporting gas or send lower volumes than what is needed/requested.

At the same time, FOMC minutes of the June meeting confirmed the Fed’s determination to hike rates aggressively, even if it results in a period of lower economic growth. This is likely to support the dollar alongside its safe-haven appeal at a time when recession concerns pick up.

EUR/USD SELLING HAS BEEN RELENTLESS

Since the Euro broke below multi-year support at 1.0340, selling has been relentless in the pair with little to no bouncebacks for traders to fade. Alongside this, close watchers of the pair may have noticed that Euro selling has picked up notably once London walks in, which to me suggests a more flow-driven move by big investors (not confirmed, more my speculation).

    • A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon Movement Network while exploring new blockchain innovations, and it completely shifted my perspective. The concept of combining Move-based security with the Ethereum ecosystem seemed ambitious, but their M2 ZK Layer 2 solution makes it feel achievable. I've always been cautious about blockchain vulnerabilities like reentrancy attacks, and the Move programming language addresses those concerns head-on. What's even better? Movement Labs makes it easier for developers by offering tools to convert Solidity scripts into Move opcodes. There is no need to rewrite entire codes. When I heard $MOVE was listed on BingX, I knew it was time to delve deeper. Right now, there's even a listing carnival where you can deposit, trade, and claim your share of 40,000 $MOVE. It’s not just about trading; it's about joining a network that’s shaping the future of blockchain with innovation and practicality
    • Solana (SOL) is making waves in December 2024, trading at $240.55, with a weekly gain of 2.42%. Despite a slight daily dip of 1.14%, the Solana crypto price has risen impressively by 3.29% over the past month, achieving a year-to-date increase of 1.9% and a stunning 29.91% quarterly gain. The current price of Solana remains near its recent all-time high of $263.83, recorded in November. Institutional interest in Solana coin price is surging, as evidenced by a 4.04% rise in derivatives Open Interest, now at $6.13 billion. Analysts attribute this growth to Solana’s scalability, low transaction costs, and expanding ecosystem of dApps and NFTs. The Sol crypto price is further supported by technical patterns like the cup and handle, which often precede upward momentum. Key support levels for the Solana price today lie at $230, with $420 projected as a potential festive season target. The Solana price now benefits from robust market fundamentals, such as strong RSI (66.11) and MACD (9.22) readings, signaling sustained buying interest. With Bitcoin nearing $100,000, alternative cryptocurrencies like Solana are poised for continued growth, making the Sol price prediction increasingly optimistic.
    • Coffee Elliott Wave Analysis Coffee has recovered from the late November sharp drop. The next breakout will see it trading at the highest prices since the 1970s. For many decades, prices have been in a $300-wide range. Is it about to break the range and reach for new highs? Daily Chart Analysis On the daily chart, the price is evolving into a double zigzag structure from the January 2023 low of $141.85. Wave ((W)) in April 2024 followed by a dip for wave ((X)) which ended in May 2024 where wave ((Y)) started. It now appears the price is upside along the path of wave (Y) of ((Y)). This shows room for more upside for buyers before a significant pullback follows. H4 Chart Analysis On the h4 chart, the price appears to have completed wave A of (Y) and perhaps wave B in early December if the current rally progresses above wave A high. Thus, the commodity will most likely advance toward $385 in the coming days. With this, a new record high should happen. Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
