The last read of the day on each 1-hour chart (read every hour).

• EUR/USD

  Downtrend, stabilising near lows · last read 23:02 UTC at 1.14081

  EURUSD drifted lower through the week from Monday's ~1.1447 open into five-week lows near 1.1396, pressured by safe-haven USD demand as ECB-hawkish support failed to lift it out of its low-1.14 range.

• GBP/USD

  Downtrend, momentum flattening · last read 23:01 UTC at 1.33704

  GBPUSD has trended lower all week from the 1.3481 open, shedding ground after Tuesday's soft UK labour data and Monday's cool June CPI (2.6% vs 2.7% f/c) kept the pound heavy below the 1.3400 pivot.

• USD/JPY

  Uptrend, momentum slowing near highs · last read 23:02 UTC at 163.106

  USDJPY pushed through 163 during the NY session on Tuesday — the first time above there since 1986 — as a wide US-Japan rate gap and safe-haven dollar demand kept the yen pinned at multi-decade lows.

• USD/CHF

  Uptrend, stalling near cap · last read 23:02 UTC at 0.81446

  USDCHF has ground higher since Monday's open near 0.8082, riding the USD safe-haven bid from US-Iran/Hormuz escalation, and now sits pinned near 0.8148 just under the 0.8150 YTD cap.

• USD/CAD

  Uptrend, momentum slowing · last read 23:02 UTC at 1.40874

  USDCAD rallied off the 1.4003 low toward the 1.4110 week high through Tuesday's NY session, the leg powered by Monday's soft CAD CPI miss and fresh US tariff headlines.

• AUD/USD

  Pullback from weekly high, momentum fading · last read 23:03 UTC at 0.6988

  AUDUSD ran to a week high at 0.7026 mid-week before rejecting at the range top and easing back under the 0.7000 figure, which has acted as the magnet all week.

• NZD/USD

  Downtrend, grinding at lows · last read 23:03 UTC at 0.58114

  NZD/USD extended a fifth straight session of losses off the 0.58724 seven-week high, sliding to ~0.5811 as safe-haven USD demand from US-Iran escalation overrode the hot RBNZ CPI read.

• XAU/USD

  Uptrend, momentum slowing · last read 23:03 UTC at 4,118.23

  Gold ran four straight higher-high sessions on the US-Iran safe-haven bid, reclaiming above $4,100 and tagging a week high at 4166 during the NY session before rejection.

• XAG/USD

  Uptrend, momentum stalling · last read 23:03 UTC at 59.312

  Silver extended a fourth straight up-day this week, ripping off the $54.76 YTD low on Mideast safe-haven flows and tagging $60.91 during the NY session before rejecting.

• BTC/USD

  Uptrend, momentum slowing · last read 23:03 UTC at 65,980.34

  BTC rallied from Tuesday's 63,725 low to peak near 66,900 mid-week, then handed back gains to consolidate in a 65,480–66,330 band.
