AUD/USD Analysis

I wrote yesterday that the wider pattern is indicative of a slowing down of the long-term bearish trend, and today this looks to even more true as we have broken up past a resistance level and printed a new support level below confluent with the round number at 0.7200. The odds are increasing of a deep pull back or even reversal of the bearish trend happening soon.

AUDUSD

There is nothing due today regarding the AUD. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of FOMC Meeting Minutes at 7pm London time.
