The short-term technical outlook for EUR/USD, GBP/USD, NZD/USD, and CAD/USD is bearish. The short-term technical outlook for USD/JPY is uncertain due to possible intervention by the Bank of Japan. The short-term technical outlook for AUD/USD and CHF/USD is within their respective uptrend channels. The short-term technical outlook for Gold is bullish.

This week is crucial for gauging central bank policy and the health of major economies. Be prepared for potential volatility in currency markets, especially around key data releases.
