USD 
EUR 
CAD
The Canadian dollar was in focus today, with a couple of high-impact economic events on the docket, including the S&P Global Composite PMI and Services PMI. If you were watching the USDCAD pair, you'd have noticed it's been trading within a well-defined range since peaking at the end of June, but it broke below that range on July 14. Today, the pair closed at 1.4021, which is pretty much unchanged. And honestly, it's not like we saw any major surprises - the data was solid, but not spectacular.
But what's really interesting is what's happening with the yen. The USDJPY is making a break for it, and it's nearing the key 200-day moving average at 158.02. According to ForexLive, this is a big deal, as it could signal a trend reversal. And if you look at the USDCHF, it's up 0.33%, which is the biggest move of the day. The AUDUSD, on the other hand, is down 0.28%, which is a pretty significant drop. You'd have noticed that gold saw some early gains, but they eased off later in the day. FXStreet pointed out that equities took a step back, which is pretty wild, given that the S&P 500 soared to record highs just recently.
And let's not forget about the euro and pound - the EURGBP closed at 0.8568, which is unchanged. It's not like we saw any major moves there, but it's still worth keeping an eye on. The NZDJPY, on the other hand, closed at 93.0235, which is also unchanged. But what's coming next is what's really important - we've got a bunch of economic events lined up for the rest of the week, and they could potentially shake things up. According to DailyFX, the USDCAD is still trading within that well-defined range, so it's worth keeping an eye on that. The USDMXN closed at 17.2059, which is unchanged, but that could change soon.
The USD is mostly higher, except against the CAD, which is down 0.07%. It's going to be interesting to see how things play out tomorrow, especially with the yen and the Canadian dollar in focus. We'll have to wait and see what happens next, but for now, it's all about watching those key levels and waiting for a breakout. The USDJPY is definitely one to watch, and if it breaks above that 200-day moving average, it could be a big deal.
