Talking Points

  • Strategy: Short (From 0.8530), Stop: 0.8540 (Daily Close), Target: 0.8330
  • Bullish Reversal Signals Lacking On The Daily & H4
  • Slide Below The 0.8540 Floor May Open 0.8320

AUD/USD has pushed into waters not witnessed since 2010 with an absence of bullish reversal patterns opening the prospect of further declines. This has created a fresh opportunity for short positioning with a downside target offered by the July ’10 low near 0.8320.
