Talking Points:

  • AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 0.7706, 0.7559, 0.7459
  • Resistance:0.7900, 0.8058, 0.8221

The Australian Dollar continues to tread water near the middle of a familiar range above the 0.75 figure against its US counterpart. Near-term resistance is in the 0.7857-7900 area (23.6% level, February 25 high), with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 38.2% level at 0.8059.Alternatively, a reversal below the 0.7706-33 zone (14.6% Fib, horizontal pivot) opens the door for a test of the range floor at 0.7559.

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.
