- AUD/USD meets with a fresh supply on Friday and drops back closer to the weekly low.
The pair currently trades last at 0.67483.
The previous day high was 0.6847 while the previous day low was 0.6766. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 0.6816, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 0.6797, expected to provide resistance.
The AUD/USD pair extends the previous day’s sharp pullback from the vicinity of mid-0.6800s, or the weekly high and drifts lower through the early part of the European session on Friday. Spot prices currently trade around the 0.6750 region, which represents the weekly trough touched on Wednesday and the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent rally from sub-0.6600 levels touched in late June.
Concerns over slowing economic growth in China, the worsening US-China trade ties and geopolitical risks overshadow the upbeat Australian jobs data released on Thursday, which puts pressure on the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to hike further. This, along with a goodish pickup in the US Dollar (USD) demand, bolstered by a sharp fall in the Japanese Yen, exerts some downward pressure on the AUD/USD pair.
From a technical perspective, the recent failure near the 0.6900 round figure constitutes the formation of a bearish double-top pattern on the daily chart. That said, oscillators on the daily chart – though have been losing positive traction – are yet to confirm a negative outlook. This makes it prudent to wait for some follow-through selling below the 0.6750 support before positioning for any further intraday depreciating move.
The AUD/USD pair might then accelerate the fall towards challenging a technically significant 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), currently pegged just above the 0.6700 mark. The said handle coincides with the 61.8% Fibo. level, which if broken decisively will be seen as a fresh trigger for bearish traders and drag spot prices to the 0.6655-0.6650 intermediate support en route to sub-0.6600 levels, or the monthly low.
On the flip side, the 38.2% Fibo. level, around the 0.6775-0.6780 region, now seems to act as an immediate hurdle ahead of the 0.6800 mark. and the 0.6825 zone, or the 23.6% Fibo. A sustained strength beyond should allow the AUD/USD pair to make a fresh attempt to conquer the 0.6900 double-top barrier. Some follow-through buying will negate the bearish pattern and shift the near-term bias back in favour of bullish traders.
The subsequent short-covering rally has the potential to lift the AUD/USD pair to the 0.6970-0.6975 next relevant hurdle. This is closely followed by the 0.7000 psychological mark, above which the upward trajectory could get extended further towards the 0.7050-0.7055 area en route to the 0.7100 round figure. Spot prices could eventually climb to the YTD peak, around the 0.7155-0.7160 region touched in February.
