AI Live Scan, 4-hour charts, Friday, 31 July 2026
The last read of the day on each 4-hour chart (read every 4 hours).
EUR/USD
Uptrend, momentum extending · last read 17:01 UTC at 1.15149
EURUSD broke out of the 1.1350-1.1450 range that had capped price for two weeks, driven by the post-FOMC dollar slide and sticky Eurozone core inflation.
GBP/USD
Downtrend reversing, rally off base · last read 17:02 UTC at 1.3467
Price spent two weeks grinding lower from the mid-month high near 1.3558 into a 1.3273 base, before a sharp reversal — the hawkish BoE 6-3 vote drove a breakout back above the descending lower-highs and both EMAs on an expanded-range candle.
USD/JPY
Sharp reversal, consolidating lower · last read 17:02 UTC at 159.182
The multi-week grind up to 163.90 ended abruptly with a suspected MoF intervention that dropped USDJPY roughly 500 pips to 157.96 in a single H4 bar.
USD/CHF
Uptrend reversed, momentum bearish · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.80837
An eight-day advance stalled into a double top near the 0.8200 13-month high before the post-FOMC USD slide dragged price through the 0.816 base in two heavy sessions, printing a swing low at 0.8039.
USD/CAD
Downtrend, lower highs and lows · last read 17:02 UTC at 1.40285
Downtrend intact since the early-month roll-over from 1.4238, printing lower highs and lower lows into the 1.4000 handle.
AUD/USD
Uptrend, extending · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.70232
Higher-low structure intact since the 0.6920 base, with price clearing the 0.7000 round number and printing a fresh multi-week high at 0.7044 — a move fuelled by post-FOMC USD weakness rather than domestic AUD strength after the soft Q2 CPI.
NZD/USD
Uptrend, near 8-week highs · last read 17:03 UTC at 0.58762
NZDUSD is in a clear H4 uptrend, printing higher highs and higher lows since the late-month base near 0.5762 and now pressing the 8-week high at 0.5888.
XAU/USD
Rangebound, no clear direction · last read 17:03 UTC at 4,044.09
Gold remains gridlocked in its month-old range, chopping between the 4000 floor and the 4120 ceiling with the hawkish Fed hold and firm USD capping rallies.
XAG/USD
Downtrend within broader range · last read 17:04 UTC at 57.444
Silver is rolling over again, fading from the 59.30 high back toward the low-57s as a hawkish Fed pause lifts yields and the USD, keeping the metal pinned in its multi-week 55–62 range.
BTC/USD
Rolling over, momentum lower · last read 17:04 UTC at 62,721.92
BTCUSD rolled over from the mid-month peak near 66,900, printing a sequence of lower highs before slicing through the 63,400-65,500 range on the latest bar into 62,400.
