EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD bearish pressure is getting stronger

Looking at the EURUSD chart on the daily time frame, we see that the pair is currently testing the support zone at 1.16500. If bearish pressure continues, we can expect a further continuation of the EURUSD decline to lower levels on the chart. Our first lower support is at 1.16000, while further below, we will have greater psychological support at 1.15000. For the bullish scenario, we need positive consolidation with the support of the zone at 1.16500, which would lead to the recovery of the EURUSD pair and potential testing of the area 1.17500-1.18000. In that zone, we have resistances in the upper falling line and the 20-day and 50-day moving averages. For a stronger bullish trend, we need a break above this resistance zone, which would push the pair towards the 200 moving average in the 1.19500 area.

GBPUSD chart analysis

Looking at the GBPUSD chart on the daily time frame, we see that the pair broke the support zone to 1.36000. after that, the pair dropped to the current 1.35000. The strong dollar affected the chart, and if the pound does not consolidate, then we can expect a further decline towards the next support at 1.32000. For the bullish trend, we need a new positive consolidation and a return above 1.36000. Looking at moving averages, it seems that we have just entered the bearish trend and that we can expect a continuation in the coming period.

AUDUSD chart analysis

Looking at the AUDUSD chart on the daily time frame, we see that the pair is still under great pressure, and we can expect to see a retreat towards lower psychological support at 0.70000 in the coming period. Potential support can be expected at the previous low at 0.71000. We need a positive consolidation for the bullish scenario that would climb the pair above the 20-day and 50-day moving average above 0.73000.
