The last read of the day on each 1-hour chart (read every hour).

• EUR/USD

  Drifting lower, momentum fading · last read 23:01 UTC at 1.14644

  Monday's session opened bid near 1.1481 but faded through the European and NY hours, closing on its lows at 1.14644 with price back under EMA(20) around 1.14711 and RSI(14) near 36.

• GBP/USD

  Downtrend from Wednesday's high, momentum flat · last read 23:01 UTC at 1.33677

  The week's dominant move came in two event bars: the hawkish FOMC hike knocked cable ~80 pips off 1.3461 in Wednesday's NY session, and Thursday's 6-3 BoE hold extended the slide to the 1.3335 week low by Friday's London hours.

• USD/JPY

  Uptrend, momentum flattening near highs · last read 23:02 UTC at 157.296

  Price rebuilt through Monday's London and NY sessions from 156.58 back to 157.52, unwinding most of Friday's rate-check-driven slide off the 158.05 week high, with the dovish-delivered BoJ hike against a hawkish Fed still the backdrop.

• USD/CHF

  Downtrend, third day of pullback from 0.8263 · last read 23:03 UTC at 0.82078

  The post-FOMC spike to 0.82638 marked the high of the window and price has bled lower since, with Monday's NY session driving the break beneath the 0.8225-0.8265 consolidation band and printing a monday low at 0.82062.

• USD/CAD

  Uptrend, grinding higher with momentum cooling · last read 23:02 UTC at 1.40326

  USDCAD has climbed in a shallow channel of higher lows from 1.39783 at Monday's Asia open to a week high at 1.40386 during the NY session, with the 1.4000 psych level now acting as a floor rather than a cap after last week's break.

• AUD/USD

  Sideways, momentum rolling over after Monday's fade · last read 23:03 UTC at 0.71199

  The week opened with a small gap-down to 0.71087, which was immediately bought back above 0.7100 and extended to a 0.71398 week high in the London afternoon before fading through the NY session as a firm, hawkish-Fed USD capped the move.

• NZD/USD

  Downtrend, momentum flattening into a base · last read 23:03 UTC at 0.57153

  Since Thursday's single-bar slide off 0.5767 the pair has traded a flat 0.5705–0.5738 band, with each bounce capped progressively lower — 0.57504, then 0.57384 on Monday's NY session — while the 0.5705 base has held three times.

• XAU/USD

  Pullback inside a range, momentum stabilising · last read 23:04 UTC at 4,363.46

  Gold opened Monday under Friday's close and ground lower through the London and NY sessions, from 4383.36 (monday high) down to 4322.77 (monday low), as the post-Fed dollar recovery and hawkish Fedspeak kept bullion offered.

• XAG/USD

  Last week's rally stalled, sideways drift · last read 23:04 UTC at 66.395

  Friday's yield-led impulse off 62.30 topped out at the 67.32 week high, and Monday's session has been pure digestion: a London-hours probe to the 67.03 monday high was rejected, then two NY-session pushes failed at the 66.75 supply shelf before price ground…

• BTC/USD

  Uptrend, extended after breakout · last read 23:05 UTC at 86,355.90

  BTCUSD spent most of the window grinding inside an 80,000–82,000 band before clearing the range top in the NY session two days ago, then ran a near 6,000-point impulse to a week high at 87,273.
