AUDUSD is in consolidation mode. Price action on Oct 14 continues to highlight a possible reversal pattern - a hammer candle. It signals the end of the bear cycle that started Sep 17. Note that MA studies have remained in a bull-mode position during the latest bear leg, highlighting a dominant M/T uptrend. Initial resistance is 0.6548, the 50-day EMA. A breach of 0.6440, the Oct 14 low, would cancel the reversal signal and reinstate a bear threat.
