The US dollar continues to grind higher against the yen in a choppy range, with support near the 50-day EMA around 155 and resistance at 158, as the wide US–Japan rate differential and BOJ’s limited tightening scope keep a buy-the-dip bias intact toward the 160 area.
The US dollar continues to edge up against the Swiss franc in a well-defined 0.79–0.8150 range, with traders favoring buy-the-dip setups amid thin holiday liquidity, SNB discomfort with franc strength, and a positive swap supporting long USD/CHF positions.
The S&P 500 has eased slightly as traders head into New Year celebrations, yet the broader uptrend remains intact, with buyers likely to step in on dips above the 6,500–6,800 support zone while aiming for a move toward the 7,000 level and beyond.
The euro remains under pressure below the 1.18–1.1875 resistance zone, with EUR/USD likely to stay choppy and range-bound as traders juggle Fed cut expectations against lingering demand for the US dollar as a safe haven.
WTI crude remains under pressure as repeated selling on rallies, record US output and ample global supply cap prices below key resistance, leaving the market biased to sell short-term bounces above the $55 support zone.
Silver remains highly volatile, with repeated selloffs testing the $70 support level and raising the risk of a deeper slide toward $65, making caution essential for traders.
