AUDUSD – Retail FX traders remain heavily long the Australian Dollar versus the US Dollar, and a contrarian view of crowd sentiment gives reason to believe the AUDUSD fall further.
Trade Implications – AUDUSD:Our retail FX data shows that there are an impressive 2.8 long positions for every position short the AUDUSD—coming close to extremes not seen since May as the AU$ tested key support at $0.9200. In that instance it set an important short-term low before breaking down in September. And though heavily one-sided positions often occur at major market tops/bottoms, the actual extreme is only clear in hindsight. Until we see a sustained shift in sentiment we’ll continue call for AUDUSD weakness.
