AUDUSD TECHS: Correction Extends

  • RES 4: 0.6865 High Feb 22
  • RES 3: 0.6824 High Feb 24
  • RES 2: 0.6784 High Mar 1
  • RES 1: 0.6773 50-day EMA and a key resistance
  • PRICE: 0.6736@ 08:14 GMT Mar 23
  • SUP 1: 0.6650 Low Mar 21
  • SUP 2: 0.6590/47 Low Mar 15 / 61.8% of the Oct - Feb bull cycle
  • SUP 3: 0.6500 Round number support
  • SUP 4: 0.6425 2.00 projection of the Feb 2 - 6 - 14 price swing

The AUDUSD trend condition remains bearish, however, a bull cycle remains in play now - a correction. The 20-day EMA has been breached and this exposes resistance at the 50-day EMA - at 0.6773. A clear break of the average would strengthen a bullish theme and suggest scope for a stronger short-term recovery. Key support and the bear trigger has been defined at 0.6565, the Mar 10 low.

The CPI-inspired intraday spike in EURUSD reversed into the Tuesday close last week and the pair printed another lower low Friday. The price action shows rallies are still prone to pullbacks on any move higher. Prices have now broken below the 50-day EMA at 1.0678, signalling that the current correction could have room to run lower. The clear break of the 50-day EMA strengthens the bearish cycle and exposes 1.0484, the Jan 6 low.
