Talking Points:

• AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat

• Support: 0.7379, 0.7323, 0.7259

• Resistance:0.7468, 0.7541, 0.7614

The Australian Dollar is digesting gains after rising against its US namesake as expected to overturn a three-month uptrend. A daily close above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracementat 0.7468 exposes the 50% level at 0.7541. Alternatively, a turn below the 23.6% Fib at 0.7379 clears the way for a challengeof the 14.6% retracement at 0.7323.

On balance, the overall AUD/USD trend seems to be bearish. As such, we will look at any oncoming move higher as corrective and treat it as an opportunity to establish a short position in line with the dominant longer-term trajectory. We remain flat for the time being.
