U.S. Dollar Index moved away from yearly highs as traders took some profits off the table after the strong rally. Today, traders focused on PPI data. PPI increased by 0.2% month-over-month in October, while Core PPI grew by 0.3%. Both reports met analyst expectations.
In case U.S. Dollar Index settles below the 106.50 level, it will head towards the nearest support, which is located in the 106.00 – 106.15 range.
EUR/USD is trying to rebound after the strong pullback. Today, traders focused on the Euro Area GDP Growth Rate report, which showed that GDP Growth Rate was 0.4% in the third quarter. On a year-over-year basis, GDP Growth Rate was 0.9%, in line with analyst consensus.
In case EUR/USD climbs above the 1.0600 level, it will head towards the resistance at 1.0650 – 1.0670.
GBP/USD has also moved away from recent lows as traders took profits off the table after the strong pullback.
A move above the 1.2700 level will push GBP/USD towards the 1.2750 level. If GBP/USD climbs above 1.2750, it will head towards the nearest significant resistance at 1.2870 – 1.2880.
USD/CAD continues to move higher as demand for commodity-related currencies declines.
If USD/CAD manages to settle above the 1.4050 level, it will head towards the next resistance level at 1.4100 – 1.4120.
USD/JPY continues its attempts to settle above the 156.00 level despite falling Treasury yields. Traders stay focused on the ultra-dovish policy of the BoJ.
If USD/JPY settles above the 156.00 level, it will head towards the next resistance level at 157.50 – 158.00.
