EURUSD 4 HOUR CHART
Just an observation but EURUSD has been trading with a bid the past 3 days, even before the ceasefire headline hit the market.
Currently, it is trading with a bid but still well below Wed’s 1.1722 high so just consolidating as there is too much uncertainty to suggest follow through, especial[lly on the upside barring a surprise headline..

If you read the headlines it is hard to have confidence the ceasefire will hold let alone it will lead to a peace agreemrbt.
Yet, we should have learned by now to expect the unexpected, especially with talks to take place over the weekend.
Also markets still adjusting to the risk on reaction to the ceasefire so it is hard to see big bets ahead of this weekend.

XAUUSD (GOLD) 1 HOUR
Fragile ceasefire, fragile convictions, looking for a safe place to hide
XAUUSD back into its 4600-4800 range where the 4700 midpoint is pivotal
While short-term momentum tilting down after failing to hold 4800+, trade turning sideways after holding 4700 (low 4698).
Above 4765 would be needed to break momentum and shift focus back to 4800.

hahahaha, I can hardly contain myself

President T’s ceasefire with Iran draws praise from world leaders
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday he supports President Donald T’s two-week ceasefire with Iran. In a Truth Social post, T suggested Iran was ready to reach a peace agreement and said the U.S. would help manage traffic in the Strait of Hormuz.
… oh the grifter … “the U.S. would help manage traffic” … rofl

I posted this earlier today and it did not take long for markets to pause.
…Global markets are breathing a sigh of relief after the announcement of a two week ceasefire. Not to dampen tje party but the quest for peace faces a hill, more like a mountain to climb to find a permanent solution. This suggests at least two more weeks of headline watching and moving deadlines .as both sides look to find ways to overcome seemingly irreconcilable differences and a lack of trust.
ETHUSD
Ethereum’s derivatives market has picked up significantly, with more positions being opened and daily futures trading volume rising above $49 billion. The past 24 hours have seen around $1.2 billion in inflows to the futures markets while the spot market has remained relatively quiet.

ETHUSD (1D)
Ethereum is currently moving along a rising support line on the daily chart and had consolidated within a tight range around 2,090–2,145.. As long as the price stays above $2,108, the overall direction still leans slightly upward. If the price starts rising again, the next level to watch is around $2,388, with a possible move toward $2,746 if momentum continues.

GBPUSD DAILY
Why my levels matter (high was 1.3484)
Samee chart I posted earlier (GBPUSD was at 1.3453) along with this:
Outperforming and needing to break 1.3483 (plus 1.35) to fully confirm end of the downtrend (note trendline broken) and shift into an uptrend.
Otherwise, range is to 1.3345 with a bid while above it
