AUDUSD TECHS: Bearish Threat

Oct-13 19:30
  • RES 4: 0.6726 1.236 proj of the Jun 23 - Jul 24 - Aug 21 price swing
  • RES 3: 0.6660/6707 High Sep 18 / 17 and a bull trigger
  • RES 2: 0.6629 High Sep 30 & Oct 01 and key short-term resistance
  • RES 1: 0.6560 50-day EMA
  • PRICE: 0.6513 @ 08:11 BST Oct 13
  • SUP 1: 0.6473 Low Oct 10
  • SUP 2: 0.6463 Low Aug 27 
  • SUP 3: 0.6415 Low Aug 21 / 22 and a bear trigger 
  • SUP 4: 0.6373 Low Jun 23

A sharp sell-off in AUDUSD on Friday resulted in a break of 0.6521, the Sep 26 low, and 0.6484, the 76.4% retracement of the Aug 21 - Sep 17 bull leg. This undermines the recent bullish theme and instead signals scope for a deeper retracement, potentially towards key support at 0.6415, the Aug 21 and 22 low. Initial resistance to watch is 0.6560, the 50-day EMA. Key short-term resistance has been defined at 0.6629, the Sep 30 and Oct 1 high.     

US TSYS: Tsys Rebound Late, 2s-10s Leading on Subdued Holiday Trade

  • Treasury look to settle mixed, bonds weaker on very light volumes (TYZ5 670k) due to the Columbus Day holiday. The Dec'25 10Y contract currently trades at 113-05.5 (+1) - rebounding late with no obvious headline of Block-driven support.
  • Normal Globex trade hours, stocks open - recovering approximately half of Friday's rout: the DJIA trades up 575.86 points (1.27%) at 46,057.31, S&P E-Minis up 98 points (1.49%) at 6,693, Nasdaq up 467.7 points (2.1%) at 22,674.98.
  • No data, but Philly Fed Pres Anna Paulson (non-2025 FOMC voter, votes in 2026) said in a speech Monday that with rates "modestly restrictive now", she sees easing through year-end in line with the September SEP median - in other words, two more cuts by year-end. That's in line with MNI's assumption of her view.
