In yesterday’s U.S. currency trading, the U.S. dollar fell against the yen. The USD/JPY pair dropped from 148.579 to 147.332. On the hourly chart, the price moved from above the 20-period moving average (MA) to below it.On the 4-hour chart, the support line at the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) failed to hold, and the price fell below it. On the daily chart, the 200-period SMA acted as a resistance level, causing the candlestick to reverse. As downward price movement is also being observed during today’s Asian session, we should pay close attention to developments during the U.S. session.
European currencies rose as the euro gained against the U.S. dollar following the release of Germany’s July industrial production data yesterday, which showed a year-on-year improvement from the previous month’s 3.6% decline to a 1.5% increase.The EUR/USD pair rose from 1.1703 to 1.1766. The price moved along the 20-period moving average (MA) on the hourly chart. On the 4-hour chart, the 10-period MA is acting as a support line and is trending upward, while on the daily chart, the price has moved from the -2σ to the +3σ Bollinger Bands and has been rising for two consecutive days.
