USD/JPY
The price zone of 105.6 seems to be broken; However, the price action around this zone is very hesitant, plus the ratio of RR for short orders is not attractive. You should consider if you want to sell.
EUR/USD
USD continued to weaken, pushing EUR/USD up and retesting the 1.190 level. Short trades are facing big risks, so we will abandon the view of selling completely when prices break below 1.190 (the uptrend will continue). Do not enter more commands at this time. Focus on observing the two marked prices.
GBP/USD
Price action on GBP/USD is quite similar to EUR/USD. Price is re-approaching the peak of 1.317 after completing the bullish flag pattern. Activation area of new buy orders will be 1.317. If it breaks down, the price is likely to approach the zone of 1.328. The other possibility is to form a double peak. In general, it is necessary to wait for more forex signals of price action from the zone of 1.317 to determine the next direction.
USD/CAD
The target price zone of 1.32 has been approached. You need to consider closing some short orders earlier. It is likely that the price will re-test the transition zone of 1.335. This is an opportunity for us to add a short position. In the medium term, we wait for the 1.32 trough to be broken to set a target of 1.30.
AUD/USD
Price still respects the support levels but not the mid-long-term uptrend line and the MA20 on the daily chart. However, the upside force is an issue. Price seems to be accumulating rather than continuing the trend. Current conditions are not favorable for trading. Observe the price action at two margins to get the next conclusion.
