Yahoo Finance AUD/USD Price Forecast – Australian Dollar Gives Up Gains at Same Level
The Australian dollar has rallied a bit during the course of the trading session on Tuesday to reach towards the 0.74 level again, but just as we have seen multiple times, the 0.74 level has caused a bit too much in the way of resistance. By doing so, it has formed a less than bullish look, as we continue to chop back and forth. The market has also seen a bit of a “death cross” recently, as longer-term traders will look at that as a significant selling signal. I do not necessarily subscribe to that theory, but it certainly looks as if we are going to run out of momentum on rallies.

The market breaking above the 0.74 level could open up the possibility of a move to the 0.75 handle, which of course is a large, round, psychologically significant figure and where the 50 day EMA as well as the 200 day EMA sits just above. With that being the case, even if we do get a rally in the Aussie, I think that the sellers will jump all over this market in that general vicinity. On the other hand, if we were to turn around a break down below the 0.73 level, then it is likely that the market could open up a move down to the 0.70 level underneath which is a large, round, psychologically significant figure and an area that has caused a lot of noise in the past. Ultimately, this is a scenario that is simply “fading the rallies” overall, and therefore I still like the US dollar as Australia continues to lock itself down and of course the Chinese economy is starting to show cracks as well.
