AUD/USD Analysis:

The Australian dollar keeps rising against the US dollar with the reopening of weekly trading, approaching the target of last Thursday's signal. However, the pair is rising slowly amid the lack of strong data in addition to the Christmas holidays, which made the pair's rise weak with declining liquidity and slowing momentum.

The US dollar weakened against major currencies after US President Donald Trump approved a bill for the US stimulus package that Congress passed during the beginning of last week to help counter the repercussions of the coronavirus.

Trump had previously refused to sign the bill the past week, amid his opposition to some provisions of the volume of aid, demanding that it should be modified to 2000 dollars instead of only 600.

Technically, the AUD/USD pair continues to rise, maintaining the general bullish trend. The pair is currently trading at 0.7611 levels above strong support levels at 0.7570 and 0.7522 and above a trend line, in addition to the 50-day and 100-day moving averages on the four-hour timeframe.

In light of this general trend, I am not inclined to the idea of ​​selling, but rather to wait with each downward correction to re-buy again. Entries are from the levels specified in the signal, bearing in mind that the currency market in general has a large decline in liquidity with a significant decline in momentum in light of the withdrawal of traders before the holidays. It is therefore desirable that your trading strategy and risk management be adjusted accordingly.
