Talking Points
- AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred
- Bearish Engulfing candlestick paves way for correction
- Range between 0.9210 and 0.9440 remains in force
The Australian Dollar’s pullback from key resistance at 0.9440 has yielded Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern on the daily. Confirmation from a second successive down-day would suggest a retreat to the range-bottom at 0.9210.
AUD/USD: Reversal Pattern Puts 0.9210 In Focus

Examining intraday price action; a Doji candlestick on the four hour chart, suggests some hesitation from the bears. However, at this stage a key reversal pattern is absent, which casts doubt over the potential for a bounce. Sellers are likely to emerge at former support near 0.9375.
