AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Cautiously Edging Downward

Talking Points:

  • AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support: 0.7714, 0.7559, 0.7421

  • Resistance:0.7878, 0.8075, 0.8235

The Australian Dollar is sliding downward against its US counterpart as expected after producing a Doji candlestick. Near-term resistance-turned-support at 0.7714 exposes the 0.7559-7618 area (23.6% Fibonacci expansion, March 11 low). Alternatively, a push above the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at 0.7878 clears the way for a challenge of the 38.2% level at 0.8075.

An actionable trade setup is absent at this point, arguing against committing to a directional bias on long or short side. We will continue to stand aside for now, waiting for a clear-cut trading opportunity to present itself in the days ahead.
