The U.S Dollar continues to weaken in forex as the Pound, Euro and Yen have all produced further gains and broken important price levels.
Gold has gained and Crude Oil continues to look strong and attract buyers.
The Pound has gained versus the U.S Dollar and is above 1.40 in early trading. The relentless climb by the British currency continues to attract speculators. And traders who attempt to wager on downward reversals continue to get hurt. Until the trend ends, buying the Pound should be given consideration.
The price of Gold has broken through 1340 U.S Dollars an ounce and trading at $1345 at the time of writing. This value level has proven difficult for the precious metal before, but traders may believe the trading landscape is different this time and whisk aside fears of resistance. Gold may have the ability to gain further near term.
The Euro has pushed upwards and is above the 1.23 mark against the U.S Dollar. While the European Central Bank’s monetary policy clearly waits on tomorrow’s schedule, the Euro has nevertheless shown significant strength and continues to attract buyers.
Gains in Crude Oil have continued and the commodity is near 64.50 U.S Dollars a barrel. Supply numbers will come from the U.S today, but the impetus for buying will likely be the belief the global economy is expanding and demand for Crude Oil will increase more.
The Yen has not been left behind as the U.S Dollar has weakened in forex. The Japanese currency is below the 110.00 level and its trading has been firm. The Bank of Japan kept its policy on script yesterday, and the Yen has not missed a beat as it trends stronger against the U.S Dollar.
