The financial markets are entering another potentially volatile trading week, with geopolitical developments likely to play a significant role in price action.
At the time of recording, there were increasing concerns about a possible escalation between the United States and Iran over the weekend. If tensions intensify, traders should be prepared for potential market gaps at the weekly open, particularly across currencies, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.
As always, the technical picture remains our primary guide. This week, we’ll analyze EUR/USD, GBP/USD, Gold, and Bitcoin, highlighting the key levels and trading opportunities to watch.
We have partnered with AvaTrade, one of the industry’s leading regulated brokers.

While geopolitical headlines may create short-term volatility, the broader technical structures across several major markets remain intact.
Current market themes include:
Let’s examine each market individually.
The bearish scenario discussed in previous forecasts continues to develop almost exactly as anticipated.
Several weeks ago, we highlighted the importance of the previous swing high holding while price broke below support. That bearish sequence has now unfolded, keeping sellers firmly in control.
The larger weekly structure continues to suggest that EUR/USD is moving within a descending channel.
Price is currently approaching the middle portion of that channel—a technically significant area.
If sellers successfully break through this support, the next major objective sits below 1.1000.
However, traders should also recognize an important historical support area created by the previous bullish breakout. This zone could eventually become the foundation for another long-term buying opportunity.
For now, the trend remains bearish.
The preferred scenario is:
There remains a relatively small probability (roughly 10–20%) that EUR/USD forms a temporary consolidation or ABCD correction before continuing lower. While possible, it is currently not the primary scenario.
The British Pound continues to trade under significant bearish pressure.
Our previous forecast emphasized that as long as resistance remained intact, selling opportunities would continue to offer the highest probability.
That scenario has developed as expected.
Several technical developments support the bearish outlook:
From a macro perspective, uncertainty surrounding the UK’s political leadership and financial policy continues to weigh on investor sentiment.
While fundamentals create volatility, the technical picture remains the primary focus.
As long as current resistance and supply zones remain untouched, the next downside objectives include:
Large historical volume areas often attract price during sustained trends, making these regions important downside targets.
Gold continues to move in a difficult and highly corrective manner.
Although price action has become increasingly choppy, the overall technical outlook has not changed.
The larger bearish structure remains valid.
The preferred outlook remains for Gold to continue its decline toward the previous weekly low.
This move would complete the current corrective cycle while allowing price to retest the longer-term dynamic support trendline.
An alternative possibility is that Gold extends its corrective ABCD pattern before the larger bearish move begins.
Should this occur, traders should monitor for:
These conditions could present another attractive selling opportunity.
Several resistance zones continue to attract attention:
Unless these levels are decisively broken, sellers continue to maintain the technical advantage.
Bitcoin has reached one of the most important technical areas on the chart.
Price is currently testing a significant supply zone while simultaneously trading inside a short-term consolidation range.
These levels are likely to determine the next major directional move.
As long as current resistance continues holding, the probability favors another move lower.
The broader technical objective remains unchanged:
This type of divergence would strengthen the probability of a larger long-term bullish reversal.
While the short-term bias remains bearish, the long-term picture continues to look constructive.
Once the current correction is complete, Bitcoin may begin building the foundation for its next major bull market, potentially extending into 2028 and beyond.
For now, however, patience remains essential.
Every forecast above is paired with two scenarios. Why? Because great trading is not about being right — it’s about being ready. Let the market confirm the bias. Use your system, manage risk, and execute only when the structure and confirmation align.
