The last read of the day on each 4-hour chart (read every 4 hours).

• EUR/USD

  Sideways, momentum flat · last read 17:02 UTC at 1.14387

  Price is pinned in a 1.1420-1.1482 consolidation after recovering from the 1.1325 swing low earlier in the window; the midweek push to 1.1482 faded back into the range.

• GBP/USD

  Uptrend, momentum cooling · last read 17:02 UTC at 1.34441

  Cable ran a sharp uptrend off the sub-1.3160 lows, printing higher highs into the 1.3558 peak on the GBP short-squeeze, but the last two sessions have given back ground toward 1.3426 as USD firmed on haven flows.

• USD/JPY

  Uptrend, momentum flattening near cycle high · last read 17:02 UTC at 162.439

  USDJPY has fully retraced the mid-month flush to 160.63 and is grinding back into the 162.00-163.00 box at four-decade highs, supported by oil/haven-driven USD demand.

• USD/CHF

  Range, recent lower highs · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.8069

  USDCHF rolled over from the 0.8150 YTD peak and is drifting within a broad 0.8033-0.8150 range, printing a sequence of lower highs (0.8115, 0.8097, 0.8095) as the bounce fades back toward the 38.2% retracement near 0.8078.

• USD/CAD

  Downtrend, momentum slowing · last read 17:03 UTC at 1.40154

  USDCAD has trended lower since early in the window, printing a steady sequence of lower highs and lower lows into fresh 1-month lows near 1.4006.

• AUD/USD

  Recovery uptrend, momentum cooling · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.69828

  AUDUSD rallied roughly 1.25% off the 0.6913 base to a 0.7021 peak on the soft US CPI-driven dollar pullback, then stalled right at the 50-day EMA near 0.7012 and slipped back below the 0.7000 handle.

• NZD/USD

  Uptrend, momentum slowing near resistance · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.58461

  NZDUSD is in a clean H4 uptrend, printing higher highs and higher lows off the 0.5747 base and topping out at the 0.5863 swing high.

• XAU/USD

  Downtrend, attempting to stabilise · last read 17:04 UTC at 4,013.72

  Gold remains in a H4 downtrend, rolling over from the ~4060 area back below the 4000 psych level after the soft CPI/PPI relief was faded by firmer USD and an oil-driven inflation bid.

• XAG/USD

  Downtrend, momentum stretched · last read 17:04 UTC at 55.964

  Silver remains in a clean H4 downtrend, printing a fresh YTD low at 54.76 as the week's ~7% slide extended — energy-driven inflation fears keeping Fed-hike risk alive have overridden a softer USD and cooler CPI.

• BTC/USD

  Uptrend, momentum slowing on pullback · last read 17:05 UTC at 63,303.28

  Uptrend intact since the early-month base near 60000, printing higher highs into the 65540 swing high before rolling into a corrective leg.
