XAUUSD
XAUUSD ended the 09 Jun session at 4260.35, down 71.02 (-1.64%) from the 4331.37 open. Price traversed a 126.74 range, equal to 2.93% of the opening level, with an intraday high of 4363.58 at 16:49 and a low of 4236.84 at 19:40. After the high, price moved lower to the evening low and then settled above it by the close, which was positioned in the lower portion of the day’s range at roughly one-fifth of the span from the low. Trading crossed the 4300 handle during the session, consistent with a move that crossed a 100-handle level. The day also registered fresh 5-day and 10-day lows. On the higher timeframes, the spot price finished below the daily 20-day simple moving average and the Bollinger midline, both at 4468.97, leaving the close beneath those reference levels. Momentum on H4 was negative, with the MACD signal at -42.7. The intraday structure featured the high at 16:49 followed by a move to the day’s low at 19:40, and a final settle that left the close below the session midpoint. Overall, the session closed below the open, below the daily mean gauges, and nearer to the lower boundary of the day’s traded range.

AUDUSD
AUDUSD swung through a 65-pip session as it printed fresh 5- and 10-day lows, opening at 0.7043, peaking at 0.7070 by 09:17, and sliding to 0.7004 at 19:41 before settling at 0.7025. The close marked a 0.00178 decline on the day, down 0.253%, and sat near the lower end of the range. Price action began with a modest lift in the early hours toward the 0.7070 area, then trended lower into the New York afternoon, with the intraday low holding just above the 0.7000 figure on first test. The day’s range represented 0.93% of the open. Round-number levels featured, with the early high near 0.7070 and the late-day probe near 0.7000, while the final print remained closer to the session trough than the peak. On the higher timeframes, the pair stayed below the 21-day EMA at 0.7119, while the 10-day high at 0.7200 remained distant overhead. Momentum indicators offered muted confirmation: H4 MACD hovered around the zero line, and H1 RSI(14) registered near 33, consistent with intraday pressure without a decisive momentum break. The sequence of an early high followed by a late-session low underscored the downside bias within the day, and the settlement at 0.7025 kept spot within touching distance of the newly set 5- and 10-day lows at 0.7004.

Price action traversed the 92 handle and stayed above the 90 handle throughout, with the settlement 1.88 above 90. On the intraday backdrop, trade remained beneath the H1 21‑EMA at 92.83 for the duration, as neither the open nor the session high reclaimed that measure; at settlement, price was 0.95 below this EMA. On the daily timeframe, USOUSD also sat below the 50‑day SMA at 98.37, with the close 6.49 underneath that average. The sequence featured an early high minutes after the open, followed by a progression to the 05:09 low and a later close at 91.88 without a return to the 92.50 area.
