EUR/CHF climbed after an early dip, rebounding sharply from the 0.92 level, which appears to be defended by the Swiss. With policy stances favoring a weaker franc, a breakout above 0.9333 could signal a larger bullish move.
Bitcoin continues to weaken as the $92,500 level shifts from support to resistance. Despite brief bullish attempts, institutional selling and shifting narratives weigh on sentiment, leaving downside targets near $84,000 or even $80,000 increasingly plausible.
The euro slipped against the US dollar but found support near 1.15. Short-term rallies face resistance from the 50-day EMA and a downtrend line, while broader pressure favors the dollar. A deeper breakdown targets 1.14 and potentially 1.11.
Apple slid after an early surge toward $276 reversed alongside broad market weakness. Solid jobs data dampened rate-cut hopes, pressuring tech. Key levels remain the uptrend line, $260 support, and $280 resistance, with dip-buying still favored.
The GBP/USD pair trades with a positive bias for the second straight day on Friday, though it remains confined in the previous day’s broader trading range, around the 1.3100 round figure during the early European session.
