Watching AUD.USDHello Traders.
Anyone else watching the AUD.USD Daily chart?
I'm waiting to see if the price will continue to the downside or break to the upside.
This could be a good trade idea; however, we need to wait and see what price does.
Let me know what you think, what do you think the price will do?
Happy Trading

AUD catches a breather as risk tone moderatesDespite the improvement in risk sentiment from Monday, it’s worth noting that significant concerns surrounding China’s coronavirus situation remain, keeping risks tilted to the downside.
Nevertheless, the improved risk tone has provided a welcomed respite for the AUD, copping its recent decline with AUDUSD holding steady throughout the session above the 0.66 handle.
Another beneficiary of the improved risk tone is NZD, which is receiving an additional boost from expectations for another aggressive rate hike from the RBNZ at its upcoming monetary policy meeting. Consensus looks for a 75 basis points rate hike from the central bank, taking the Official Cash Rate to 4.25%.
Indeed, the RBNZ will be the next high impact risk event in the next Asia Pacific session. Before then, central banks will still remain a key theme and focus, with comments from a plethora of central bank members throughout today’s European and US sessions. Today’s speakers will include RBA Governor Lowe, Fed’s Mester, Fed’s George and Fed’s Bullard.

AUDUSD at a key support levelThe AUDUSD has continued its slide to the downside as the price approaches the near-term low of 0.6640.
Look for continual strength of the DXY to weigh on the AUDUSD, bringing the price lower beyond the previous swing low (17th November) and 38.20% fib level.
With no major news for the AUDUSD, if the price breaks beyond the current price level of 0.6640, the AUDUSD could fall significantly lower toward the next support level of 0.6520.
Alternatively, if the price fails to break the support level, the AUDUSD could continue to range between 0.6640 and 0.68
AUDUSD 4hour Analysis November 20th, 2022AUDUSD Bullish Idea
Weekly Trend: Bearish
Daily Trend: Bullish
4Hour Trend: Bullish
Trade scenario 1: Overall we are still very bullish but price action has been consolidating near our 0.67000 resistance zone.
Going into this week we want to identify structure before getting into a trade. Ideally we see price action retrace to 0.65500 and confirm a higher low.
If this happens we can confidently enter long.
Trade scenario 2: The other likely scenario is AU moving higher now without a more significant pullback. Look for higher lows above 0.67000.
AUD USD - FUNDAMENTAL DRIVERSAUD
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: NEUTRAL
BASELINE
Ongoing issues with China’s economy remain a question mark for the AUD. But the continued rumours and speculation of a pivot away from Covid-zero policy has given Chinese equities, China-linked commodities and the Antipodean currencies a boost. The RBA took another 25bsp hike at their previous meeting, sparking some speculation that the bank could be finalizing their hiking cycle sooner than expected. But with Core Trimmed CPI >6.0% the hiking cycle is arguable not close to over just yet. In the week ahead, risk sentiment is always important, but the main driver to watch will be any further developments regarding the China’s potential reopening. We also have Wage and Jobs data, but both will take a back seat to China developments. Take note that positioning remains stretched short which could see outside upside reactions on good news.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
Data showing China’s growth outlook is improving or surprise announcements of a reduction of strict Covid-zero policies could provide upside for the AUD. As a risk sensitive currency, catalysts that causes big bouts of risk on sentiment could trigger bullish reactions in the AUD. Catalyst that triggers recovery in key export commodities (China stimulus, lifting covid restrictions, new infrastructure projects in China) should be supportive for the AUD.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
Data showing China’s growth outlook is deteriorating or strong push back from Chinese officials against speculation of a reopening could add additional pressure on the AUD. As a risk sensitive currency, catalysts that causes big bouts of risk off sentiment could trigger bearish reactions in the AUD. Catalyst that triggers further weakness in key export commodities (additional China restrictions, demand destruction) could be negative for the AUD.
BIGGER PICTURE
The AUD’s outlook remains neutral but is largely dependent on China and whether key commodities like Iron Ore and Coal can stop their bleeding. Until the covid situation and property issues in China improves materially, and until commodities and China’s growth stabilizes, the AUD is best suited for short-term trades in line with strong short-term sentiment. However, the rumours of a potential move away from Covid-zero policy has been a key driver for the AUD.
USD
FUNDAMENTAL OUTLOOK: BULLISH
BASELINE
The Fed is on a data-dependent (meeting-by-meeting) policy stance, meaning incoming growth, inflation and jobs data remains a key driver for short-term USD volatility where we expect a cyclical reaction for both the USD and US10Y (good data expected to be supportive for the USD and US yields while bad data is expected to pressure the USD and US yields). The Fed is still under pressure to continue hiking rates and ramping up QT, but last week’s decent deceleration in the OCT CPI report has given markets some solace from inflation angst. Money markets shed about 30bsp off the implied terminal rate. As a result of this the USD saw intense selling but has largely stabilized this week. Like we’ve said many times, right now is all about the data. The data will lead the Fed, which means the data is what we should follow for high probability short-term directional flows for the USD. In the week ahead, the only major data highlight is the S&P Global Flash PMIs and perhaps the FOMC meeting minutes.
POSSIBLE BULLISH SURPRISES
With the Fed signalling a data dependent policy stance, we expect a cyclical reaction from the USD with incoming US data. Thus, extremely good growth, inflation or jobs data is expected to trigger short-term bullish reactions in the USD. If the cyclical outlook continues to weaken, the USD’s safe haven status still matters. Any incoming catalysts that increase deep recession fears and triggers strong moves lower in risk assets & bonds can trigger safe haven flows into the USD. With a lot priced for the Fed and USD, the bar is high for hawkish Fed surprises, but any aggressive Fed speak talking up a >5.5% terminal rate can trigger further USD upside.
POSSIBLE BEARISH SURPRISES
With the Fed signalling a data dependent policy stance, we expect a cyclical reaction from the USD with incoming US data. Thus, extremely bad growth, inflation or jobs data is expected to trigger short-term bearish reactions in the USD. If the cyclical outlook starts to improve, the USD’s safe haven status still matters. Any incoming catalysts that decrease deep recession fears and triggers strong moves higher in risk assets & bonds can trigger safe haven outflows out of the USD. With a lot priced in for the Fed and the USD, it won’t take much to disappoint on the dovish side. Any big concerns about growth from Fed speakers could trigger outflows.
BIGGER PICTURE
The fundamental outlook for the USD remains bullish as long as the Fed stays aggressively hawkish and cyclical concerns put pressure on risk sentiment. However, it’s also important to remember that the data leads the Fed. That means, even though the USD remains fundamentally bullish in the currency negative cyclical environment, it’s short-term direction will largely be determined by the incoming data. Thus, in the current context, we prefer trading the USD in the short-term with scalps out of key US economic data points.

Wouldn't it be nice if....As the DXY fell through the week, the AUDUSD continued to rise to reach the round number and key resistance of 0.67 on Friday.
With no major news events on the horizon for the AUD, the price is likely to continue trading higher, especially if the DXY continues to weaken.
It is most likely that the price could trade beyond the 0.67 resistance level to signal a continuation of the uptrend, with the next key resistance level at 0.69.
However, wouldn't it be nice if the AUDUSD could retrace from here?
If the DXY recovers, the AUDUSD turning from the 0.67 resistance level toward the support level of 0.6540 could be a great R:R and countertrend trade.
