- AUD/USD drops to a fresh multi-week low in reaction to the softer Australian CPI print.
The pair currently trades last at 0.66438.
The previous day high was 0.6721 while the previous day low was 0.667. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 0.6701, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 0.669, expected to provide resistance.
The AUD/USD pair comes under intense selling pressure during the Asian session on Tuesday and dives to over a three-week low, around the 0.6620-0.6615 region. Spot prices, however, manage to trim a part of heavy intraday losses and currently trade just below mid-0.6600s, still down 0.65% for the day.
The Australian Dollar (AUD) weakens across the board in reaction to the softer domestic data, which showed that the headline CPI decelerated sharply to the 5.6% YoY rate in May from the 6.8% seen in the previous month. This, in turn, lifts the possibility that the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) may soon cease its rate hike cycle. Apart from this, the emergence of some US Dollar (USD) buying exerts additional downward pressure on the AUD/USD pair and contributes to the downfall.
Spot prices, however, show some resilience below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the May-June rally as traders now move to the sidelines ahead of Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell’s appearance. Meanwhile, technical indicators on the daily chart have just started drifting into the negative territory and support prospects for further losses. Moreover, a sustained break and acceptance below the 0.6675 region, representing 50% Fibo. level, favours bearish traders.
The aforementioned support breakpoint should now act as an immediate hurdle for the AUD/USD pair ahead of the 0.6700 round figure, which coincides with the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). Any subsequent move up is more likely to attract fresh sellers and remain capped near the 38.2% Fibo. level, around the 0.6730 region. The latter should act as a pivotal point, which if cleared will suggest that the recent sharp rejection slide from the 0.6900 mark has run its course.
On the flip side, bearish traders might now wait for some follow-through selling below the 0.6620-0.6615 area, or the daily swing low, before placing fresh bets. The AUD/USD pair might then accelerate the fall towards testing the next relevant support near the 0.6545 region. The downward trajectory could further get extended towards the 0.6500 psychological mark en route to the YTD low, around the 0.6460-0.6455 region touched in May.
