Gold is in consolidation mode. The trend condition is unchanged, it remains bullish and the recent pullback appears corrective. A resumption of gains would refocus attention on $2962.2, a Fibonacci projection. This would also open the $3000.0 handle. On the downside, a move lower would instead suggest scope for a deeper correction and expose support around the 50-day EMA, at $2829.8. The 50-day average marks a key support.

EURJPY traded higher Tuesday and the cross is holding on to its latest gains. A short-term bull theme remains intact following the strong reversal that started Feb 28. The cross has pierced resistance at 161.19, the Feb 13 high. A clear break of the hurdle would strengthen a bullish condition and open 162.70, the Jan 28 high. Initial support to watch is 158.91, the 20-day EMA. Key support has been defined at 154.80, the Feb 28 low.
