A bear leg in EURUSD remains intact. Last week’s move down resulted in a breach of an important support at 1.1542, the Oct 9 low. This confirms a resumption of the current downtrend. Note that 1.1516, the 76.4% retracement of the Aug 1 - Sep 17 bull leg, has also been cleared. An extension of the bear leg would expose key support at 1.1392, the Aug 1 low. First resistance to watch is 1.1669, the Oct 17 high.
Bund futures traded to a fresh short-term cycle low yesterday. A bear cycle remains intact for now. The move down that started on Oct 17 still appears corrective and has allowed an overbought trend condition to unwind. However, price has pierced a key support at 129.13, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this EMA signals scope for a deeper retracement and opens 128.92, a Fibonacci retracement. First important resistance is 129.73, Oct 28 high.
AUD/USD has edged back higher as RBA's Bullock delivered her post RBA meeting press conference. We were last 0.6530, after getting to 0.6518 post the RBA. The market may have been looking for something a little more hawkish from the statement/forecasts. Bullock's tone was cautious though and she openly questioned how much more easing would be delivered this cycle (noting they are close to neutral) and reiterated that as the RBA didn't raise rates as much (compared to other global central banks) and therefore might not need to cut as much.
