Chart alert: EUR/USD finds support as ECB hawkishness offsets Fed strength ahead of NFP
EUR/USD is showing resilience ahead of the closely watched US Nonfarm Payrolls report as investors weigh diverging economic growth trends against converging central bank hawkishness. While the US labour market remains stable enough to support a higher-for-longer Federal Reserve stance, the ECB is expected to continue tightening policy amid persistent inflation. Technical analysis suggests EUR/USD is building a potential base above key support levels, supporting a near-term bullish outlook.

Chart alert: Bitcoin (BTC/USD) potential near-term bullish reversal emerging from the sub-$70K plunge

However, technical and on-chain indicators are now pointing toward potential selling exhaustion.
