But I would say it is all of that put together alongside a confluence of technical levels holding in place against the dollar this week.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>EUR/USD defended daily support at 0.9900 in the past few days before running up 1% earlier to 1.0112, settling up 0.5% at 1.0040-50 levels at the moment. Daily resistance at 1.0075-90 remains a key spot to watch.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>GBP/USD held at the March 2020 lows near 1.1400 on the week and has rebounded to 1.1648 earlier before keeping up by 0.5% around 1.1555 at the moment.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>Meanwhile, USD/JPY is continuing its retreat after coming within a whisker of touching 145.00 two days back and has fallen further to a low of 141.50 earlier before holding around 142.50-60 levels currently.</p><p style=““ class=“text-align-justify“>USD/CAD also saw a rejection at daily resistance at 1.3200 on the week before sliding back today to just below 1.3000 and is now barely hanging above the figure level.

The risk rally has also helped to see oil be up by nearly 2% to above $85 and Bitcoin rally back above $20,000 on the day.</p>
