AUD/USD Technical Analysis: RBA Triggers Selloff Resumption

AUD/USD Technical Analysis: RBA Triggers Selloff Resumption

Talking Points:

  • AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support:0.7751, 0.7623, 0.7416
  • Resistance:0.7855, 0.7959, 0.8031

The Australian Dollar moved sharply lower against its US counterpart in the aftermath of the RBA monetary policy announcement. A daily close below the 61.8% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7751 exposes the 76.4% level at 0.7623. Alternatively, a reversal above the 50% Fibat 0.7855opens the door for a test of the 38.2% expansion at 0.7959.

Risk/reward considerations argue against entering short with prices in close proximity to support. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bullish reversal signal suggests taking up the short side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for a more actionable opportunity to present itself.
