AUD/USD Price Analysis: Consolidates near multi-week high, bulls await move beyond 0.6900 – by hareshmenghani AUDUSD Fed China Technical Analysis Currencies
The technical setup supports prospects for an extension of the appreciating move.pair is seen consolidating its recent strong gains to a nearly one-month top and oscillating in a narrow trading band through the Asian session on Friday. Bulls now await a sustained strength above the 0.6900 round figure before placing fresh bets and positioning for an extension of the recent rally witnessed over the past week or so, from sub-0.6600 levels or the monthly low.
The US Dollar remains under some selling pressure for the seventh successive day and hits a fresh low since April 2022 as traders now seem convinced that the Federal Reserve is nearing the end of its rate-hiking cycle. This, along with hopes that China will announce more stimulus measures to support the fragile domestic economy, benefits the China-proxy Australian Dollar and acts as a tailwind for the AUD./USD pair.
From a technical perspective, the recent breakout through the 0.6800 static barrier and the subsequent move up favour bullish traders. Moreover, oscillators on the dailyare holding comfortably in the positive territory and are still far from being in the overbought zone. This, in turn, supports prospects for a further near-term appreciating move and an eventual move beyond the 0.6900 mark, or the multi-month top touched in June.
The AUD/USD pair might then accelerate the momentum towards testing the 0.6955-0.6960 intermediate hurdle before aiming to reclaim the 0.7000 psychological mark for the first time since February 14. The next relevant hurdle is pegged near the 0.7025-0.7030 area, above which spot prices could climb further towards the 0.7100 round figure en route to the YTD peak, around the 0.7155-0.7160 region touched in February.
On the flip side, any meaningful corrective fall might now be seen as a buying opportunity near the 0.6835 region. This should help limit the downside near the 0.6800 resistance breakpoint, now turned support. The said handle should act as a pivotal point, which if broken decisively might prompt some technical selling and drag the AUID/USD pair back toward the very important 200-day Simple Moving Average , around the 0.6700 mark.
