XAUUSD weekly: gold retreats 103 pips to 4436.63, 2026-06-01
Gold opened the week at 4539.41 and closed at 4436.63, shedding 103 pips as risk appetite improved.
2 min de lecturaGBP/JPY opened the week at 214.351 and closed at 214.762, a gain of 41 pips or 0.19%. The pair hit a weekly high of 215.520 on Tuesday before retreating to a low of 214.154 on Monday. The net weekly move was minimal, with price essentially unchanged from where it started.
The week saw choppy, directionless trading as both sterling and yen lacked clear catalysts. Tuesday's push to 215.52 coincided with broader dollar weakness, but the move quickly reversed as USD regained ground against major pairs including GBP/USD and EUR/JPY.
Wednesday and Thursday saw the pair consolidate in a tight 50-pip range between 214.75 and 215.25, with volume declining into Friday's close at just 20,636 contracts.
The upcoming week shows no scheduled high-impact events for either GBP or JPY in the bundle. Without major data releases, the pair will likely remain sensitive to broader risk sentiment and any developments in global bond yields. If risk appetite improves, resistance at 215.52 comes back into focus. If markets turn defensive and yen buying emerges, support at 214.15 becomes the key level.
Current positioning shows 54.5% of traders are long GBP/JPY versus 45.5% short as of Friday morning. The modest long bias suggests no extreme positioning that could trigger a squeeze in either direction. The relatively balanced book points to continued range trading unless fresh catalysts emerge.
The week's high at 215.52 marks immediate resistance. A close above opens the path to 216.00. The week's low at 214.15 provides support. Below that, the psychological 214.00 level comes into play. Given the tight weekly range, a break of either boundary could see accelerated moves as stops trigger.
