The past few days have been rough and rocky for the dollar.

It has depreciated against every single G10 currency this week despite firmer Treasury yields.

As robust corporate earnings boosted risk appetite, this drew investors away from safe-haven destinations like the dollar to riskier assets. Such was reflected in the Dollar Index (DXY) which shed roughly 0.3% since Monday with prices slipping towards 93.50 as of writing. As the Greenback lost ground, G10 currencies could stretch their feet with even some spreading their wings to aim for the skies. With the dollar likely to remain pressured by the risk-on mood, this may present fresh trading opportunities across the FX space.

Our focus today will revolve around the G10 arena with technical analysis our weapon of choice.

EURUSD closes above 20 SMA…what next?

The EURUSD has pushed higher this week but in a choppy fashion with prices above the 20-day Simple Moving Average. Bulls are certainly in the vicinity with a weaker dollar fuelling upside gains. A solid daily close above 1.1660 could encourage an inline towards 1.1710 – where the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) resides. Beyond this point, the next key level of interest can be found at 1.1800.

Alternatively, a move back below the 20-day SMA may signal a decline towards 1.1570 and 1.1530, respectively.

GBPUSD enters sticky regions

It has not been a bad week for the GBPUSD thus far. Despite the slow start on Monday, the currency pair has gained roughly 100 pips with prices trading marginally above the 100-day SMA.

Now, this is where things get interesting. The 200-day SMA is around 1.3840, roughly 30 pips higher than where the 100-day SMA. If bulls fail to break through this sticky region, the GBPUSD could experience a decline back towards 1.3700 and 1.3670. However, a strong move above 1.3850 may inspire an incline towards 1.3910 and 1.4000, respectively.

Time for the USDJPY to pull back?

The USDJPY touched a fresh multi-year high early this morning before experiencing an intraday pullback. The daily candlestick resembles a shooting star which is viewed as a bearish reversal candlestick that typically occurs at the top of uptrends. A strong daily close below 114.00 could signal a further decline towards 113.20 and 113.00, respectively. Should the USDJPY break above the 114.70 multiyear high, the next key levels of interest may be found at 115.00 and 117.00.

AUDUSD pops above 0.7500

AUD bulls are certainly on a roll. Prices remain in a healthy uptrend on the daily charts as there have been consistently higher highs and higher lows. While the path of least resistance certainly points north, bulls need to secure a solid daily close above 0.7500. If this becomes reality, an incline towards 0.7560 may be on the cards. It’s worth keeping in mind that this is where the 200-day Simple Moving Average resides. Beyond this point, the next key levels can be found at 0.7600 and 0.7660.

On the flip side, sustained weakness below 0.7500 may trigger a decline back towards 0.7410.

NZDUSD maintains bullish momentum

One of the biggest winners against the dollar was the New Zealand Dollar. It has gained over 1% against the greenback this week with prices trading around 0.7200 as of writing. Prices are heavily bullish on the daily charts with the next key points of interest at 0.7240 and 0.7300. Although a pullback may be pending down the road, bulls remain in power with the path of least resistance north.
