eur and aud are still holding their position on top and are just ranging.

I have positions for a swing and these two have no signs of giving up that position.

all timeframes are showing up that it’s about to go down already, but they’re just there on top.

That just means the GBP is a bit stronger than the USD.

Nice analysis but I think you should have to pay more attention to Fed decisions. It has changed the framework of monetary policy which has some important implications for USD - weakness in case of inflation acceleration, since the Fed will tolerate higher inflation without rising rates.

GBPUSD kicks off the new month by surging above 1.34 handle, last seen since December 2019. This is in response to the broad-based weakness in the greenback that is being reflected in the Dollar index which has plunged to a fresh 28-month low level.

Read this on fxview socials. Looks like USD plunged in early asian hours. Will be on watchout for a while before jumping in. What do you guys think?
