EUR/USD Technical: Euro bullish trend intact despite 1.2% sell-off after FOMC
The EUR/USD hit a 4-year high of 1.1919 after the Fed’s 25 bps rate cut, but reversed to close -0.5% lower as Powell struck a less dovish tone, calling the move a “risk management” cut. The pair extended its decline to 1.1780 in Asia, down 1.2% from the post-FOMC high. Despite the Fed’s cautious stance, futures still price in three cuts for 2026, keeping the dollar under pressure and supporting the euro’s broader uptrend.

USD/JPY Technical: Yen eyeing a medium-term bullish breakout against USD from a 5-month range
USD/JPY remains under pressure, holding near key support at 145.95 after slipping to 146.20 in Asia trade. While the US dollar has broadly weakened in recent weeks, its bearish momentum versus the yen has lagged. With the FOMC decision, dot plot, and Powell’s remarks in focus, momentum signals point to potential further downside. A break below 145.95 may trigger a medium-term bearish move toward 145.20.

Dow Jones (DJIA) Technical: Resting at key support ahead of FOMC, watch the US Treasury yield curve to trigger a bullish move
The Dow Jones (DJIA) staged a bullish breakout above 45,780, hitting a new all-time high of 46,140 before pulling back -1.1% to 45,645 ahead of the Fed’s policy decision and dot plot release. The index’s outlook remains tied to the US Treasury yield curve, where a potential re-steepening on dovish Fed guidance could fuel the next bullish leg. Key support is at 45,780/45,690, with resistance at 46,180 and 46,570.

GBP/USD Technical: Sterling rallied to a new 4-week high, eyeing next resistance at 1.3715/3750 as FOMC looms
GBP/USD extended its recovery, rallying 1.2% to test resistance near 1.3650, supported by strong UK jobs data showing a 232k employment gain and steady 4.7% jobless rate. Sterling’s bullish momentum remains intact above 1.3590/1.3570, with upside targets at 1.3715 and 1.3750. A widening UK–US 2Y yield spread continues to favor the pound, ahead of the Fed’s FOMC decision and updated dot plot projections.
