Pair holds just under 1.4290 as lower crude and a dovish Bank of Canada weigh on the loonie (FXStreet, Tradingpedia). RSI is overbought, so a break of 1.4200 would signal a short-term top; a decisive close above 1.4290 opens 1.4415 and 1.4497. Markets still price over 80% odds of a Fed hike by year-end. Levels are conditional.

USD/CHF recovers on Iran-related haven demand and a firm dollar, but FXStreet notes the Swissie is withstanding the bond selloff, capping gains below 0.8320. Fed hold odds are about 78% for October, with TD Securities expecting hikes in December and March. A hotter ISM services print would favour 0.8380; a miss favours 0.8250. Levels are conditional.

Gold is squeezed inside a narrowing triangle on the daily chart, sitting just above the rising support line from the June-July lows and under a descending resistance line from the late-August high. It trades below both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and RSI near 38 sits under its own average of about 43, so momentum is soft. A daily close below $4,100 would break the triangle and open $3,965; a push through $4,170 targets the 50-day average near $4,272. Elevated yields near 5.31% keep a lid on the metal. Levels are conditional.

WTI slips as the G7 stock release and recovering Gulf exports add supply and OPEC+ holds quotas steady. Brent sits near $101. Risk premium remains because Iran refuses to reopen Hormuz without preconditions and tanker attacks continue. A Hormuz headline can reverse the drop quickly. Levels are conditional.

Tech leads again after Friday’s 1.19% Nasdaq Composite rally to a record intraday high, with the Composite up about 0.4% at the open (TheStreet). Rising Treasury yields are the main brake. The 31,017 record and 31,281 are overhead; a failed breakout risks a pullback toward 30,500. Index level is approximate and should be checked against the live Investing.com quote. Levels are conditional.

The 10-year yield sits just under the week’s peak above 5.34%, the highest since 2002; weak payrolls trimmed October hike odds, but yields stay near multi-decade highs. The 30-year is near 5.6%. A strong ISM services print would push yields back toward 5.34%; a miss could test 5.17%. Levels are conditional.

Bitcoin began October near $85,000 on hopes the Fed stays on hold, trading around $85,668. A break below $82,000 would bring September’s lower range back into view; reclaiming $87,000 opens $90,000. High yields remain the main headwind. Levels are conditional.

Litecoin extends a rebound, up about 41% on a month ago but still roughly 40% below a year ago (Coinbase). It follows Bitcoin’s risk tone, so ISM and Fed-minutes yield moves matter. Support is $68.80; resistance is the recent $72.30 high. Levels are conditional.
