AUD/USD Analysis

We had a steady and orderly rise in this currency pair over recent days, supported by a bullish trend line which held nicely. Finally at the end of last week it broke down, but the expected support level at 0.7576 has managed to hold the price so far.

This pair still continues to look relatively bullish, with a short-term bullish trend but no long-term trend. The price really needs to break up above the 0.7700 area before it can be said to be really bullish.

There may be minor support at 0.7600 but the next major area to watch for resistance is a retest of the broken trend line.AUDUSD

Concerning the AUD, there will be a release of Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes at 2:30am London time. There is nothing due regarding the USD.
