Contrarian Alert: Retail Is Buying, But Should You Sell?So far, there are no significant changes in the options flow suggesting a shift in sentiment or restructuring of previously established bullish positions. The market remains on watch, but interesting signals are coming from other sources.
According to the latest COT reports , institutional players continue to align with the current trend, reinforcing its stability.
However, retail positioning is starting to show signs of a potential reversal , with a noticeable increase in net-long positions and fresh buying activity over the past two days. This often indicates early countertrend interest.
The well-known contrarian principle — "do the opposite" — applies here, although it shouldn't be taken as an immediate signal to short.
For my part, I’ve identified the 0.6565–0.6570 zone as a key level where long positions are concentrated:
A rejection from this zone could offer a solid shorting opportunity.
A break above it would suggest the trend might resume higher.
By that point, updated options flow data and new positioning COT reports may provide further confirmation.
Australiandollar
Trading the July RBA decision The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) will deliver its latest policy decision on Tuesday, 9 July. Markets are heavily positioned for a 25-basis point cut, which would bring the official cash rate down to 3.60%.
Major Australian banks including CBA, Westpac, NAB and ANZ are aligned in expecting a cut this month, with some anticipating further easing in August and November. A confirmed cut paired with dovish guidance could place further downside pressure on the Australian dollar, particularly against the US dollar and Japanese yen.
AUD/USD remains capped below the 0.6580–0.6600 region, with repeated rejections suggesting strong overhead resistance. A break above this zone would be needed to shift momentum higher. Conversely, a confirmed break below 0.6520 could open a move toward the 0.6450 area. Meanwhile, AUD/JPY has rebounded firmly off its May lows and is now testing resistance near 95.30. This area has repeatedly capped upside since mid-June, making it a key level to watch into the RBA decision.
AUD/USD: The Rebound TradeThe Australian dollar (also known as the Aussie Battler) looks set to continue its recent bounce. Inflation is now under control and monetary easing will continue to support aggregate demand across the economy. While rate cuts are dovish, the underlying economy is still strong and, as we will explain below, the fiscal situation is shaping up better than expected. Stability is in.
The real action, though, is in the US. Unemployment is creeping up. Jobless claims are ticking higher. Existing home sales are falling. The US consumer is feeling the pinch. That puts pressure on the Fed. Rate cuts are back in the conversation. Markets are already pricing in the first move later this year. The US dollar is losing its grip.
AUD/USD recently tested its 200 day moving average and held firm. That’s more than just a technical level. It’s a psychological line in the sand. The Aussie held its ground.
There’s more. Australia’s fiscal position is likely to come in stronger than expected. Mining exports are holding up. Volumes are rising. That supports the budget bottom line and underpins the Aussie’s credibility as a resource backed currency. This is in stark contrast to most of the developed world, where peers are running large deficits.
This isn’t just about central banks. The global economy is shifting gears. China is stabilising. Industrial demand is returning. Commodity prices are finding a floor. That’s key for the Aussie. It’s still a commodity linked currency. As iron ore and copper pick up, the AUD should follow.
There’s a window here. Over the next twelve months, the AUD has room to move higher, testing the 0.7000 range. Not because Australia is booming, but also because the US is slowing. The Fed is running out of steam. That flips the dynamic. We’re moving from USD strength to USD softness.
The setup is clear. A soft landing in the US. A stable China. Commodities firming. And an RBA on hold. That’s a cocktail for AUD strength.
The bounce has just begun.

AUDUSD: weekly analysis Jun 1, 2025 – Jun 7, 2025Trump administration makes traders follow trades every single political news. Unpredictable about everything, if I want to describe the U.S president in one phrase. one day he decides to reduce tariffs, the other day he increases. One day wishes a good future for Iran, the other day he threatens Islamic republic with bombing. The same story with Russia, China and everything expects the Crypto. Okay let's get back to Aussie! any good news about China-Australia relations will increase the AUD.
The other important news this week is quarter to quarter GDP of the land of kangaroos.
After all, taking a look at weekly chart! A bullish week is more possible
*******************************************************************
The indicated levels are determined based on the most reaction points and the assumption of approximately equal distance between the zones.
Some of these points can also be confirmed by the mathematical intervals of Murray.
You can enter with/without confirmation. IF you want to take confirmation you can use LTF analysis, Spike move confirmation, Trend Strength confirmation and ETC.
SL could be placed below the zone or regarding the LTF swings.
TP is the next zone or the nearest moving S&R, which are median and borders of the drawn channels.
*******************************************************************
Role of different zones:
GREEN: Just long trades allowed on them.
RED: Just Short trades allowed on them.
BLUE: both long and short trades allowed on them.
WHITE: No trades allowed on them! just use them as TP points
AUD/USD: Bullish Reversal Expected From 0.6430 Support The AUD/USD 15-minute chart reveals a potential bullish reversal setup forming near the 0.6430 support zone. Following a clean Break of Structure and prior Inducement, price action is now testing a minor demand zone marked by a blue box. This level coincides with a sweep of short-term lows and rejection from the lower boundary, indicating a possible accumulation phase. The descending trendline has already been breached, suggesting weakening bearish momentum.
Traders may look for a long entry around 0.6430–0.6435, targeting the key resistance level at 0.6466, which aligns with a previous supply area and structural high. This level also represents the most immediate liquidity zone and offers a favorable risk-reward ratio. Confirmation may come through bullish candlestick patterns or lower timeframe breakouts above minor internal highs.
The overall setup reflects smart money concepts, where price typically returns to a mitigation block before continuing in the direction of the dominant trend. As long as the 0.6415 valid low holds, bullish continuation remains the preferred scenario. A break below that level would invalidate the setup and shift bias bearish.
This analysis is ideal for intraday traders looking to capitalize on a high-probability reversal with defined entry and target levels.
AUD/USD Sentiment Sours (But There May Better Shorts)Asset managers increased their net-short exposure last week - and as these are 'real money' accounts, they are a group of traders worth listening to. But as always, timing as key, and there may be better setups for bears than AUD/USD over the near term. Today I pick out for AUD crosses to consider.

AUDUSD Still on the Bullish Leg of its 3-year Channel Down.The AUDUSD pair has been trading within a Channel Down since the August 08 2022 High and is currently testing the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) as a Resistance. This is a big Resistance cluster as it also made contact with the Pivot trend-line from the pattern's first Low.
However, all Lower Highs of the Channel Down have been priced above its 1W MA50, with three Tops forming on the 1W MA200 (orange trend-line). As a result, we expect a few more months of uptrend on this Bullish Leg until it approaches the 1W MA200. Our Target is 0.67000.

Nasdaq 100 set for 25k?The Nasdaq 100 is in a technical bull market, having rebounded 20% from its cycle low. While the risk remains that this is simply a 'bear market bounce' that could sucker punch bulls, I believe bulls have got this and we could be headed for 25k.

AUDCAD Excellent Channel Down bottom opportunity.The AUDCAD pair has been trading within a long-term Channel Down since the January 26 2023 High and the recent Trade War fueled sell-off took the price almost on its bottom (Lower Lows trend-line).
The 1D RSI got vastly oversold at 14.00 and a bottom is to be expected within the next 2 weeks. Still, this level is low enough to be considered a solid long-term buy opportunity already. The previous bottom rebound targeted initially the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level, so our target is 0.88850 on the medium-term.

No Rate Hike, No Mercy – AUD/USD Selling in Style!Riding the wave of bearish structure, AUD/USD continues to follow the macro trend with laser precision. After the RBA held rates steady, we’re seeing the typical post-news dump play out—fueled by the market’s disappointment and reduced sentiment.
Technically, price respected the 4H Fair Value Gap (FVG) and showed strong displacement to the downside, confirming continuation.
Key Targets:
🔻 0.62311 – Minor liquidity
🔻 0.62185 – 1H Sell-side liquidity
🔻 0.61703 – Ultimate short-term sell-side target
Expecting the market to bleed lower unless major fundamentals flip the bias. Until then... the trend is your bestie.

Why the RBA should cut rates todayThe Reserve Bank of Australia should cut rates today, argues James Glynn in the Wall Street Journal .
Markets, however, expect the central bank to wait until May for its next move. RBA Governor Michele Bullock remains cautious, citing lingering inflation.
But Glynn contends that global uncertainty now outweighs the RBA’s desire to wait for marginal improvements in inflation data. That uncertainty is set to escalate this Wednesday, with the Trump administration announcing sweeping tariffs on U.S. trading partners—likely triggering retaliatory measures.
Andrew Boak, chief economist at Goldman Sachs Australia, appears to support Glynn’s view: “There are costs to waiting until May to cut. Waiting is not always a virtue.”
Is Glynn simply chasing a contrarian headline or is there actually a possibility the RBA could act today?
AUDJPY This Golden Cross is the signal for selling.The AUDJPY pair gave us last time (February 19, see chart below) an excellent sell signal that easily hit our 93.750 Target and bottom of the Bearish Megaphone:
The market is about to complete a 4H Golden Cross and last time it did (January 07 2025), it formed a Top. That was also after a Channel Up that started following an almost -6% decline. Notice how the 1D RSI patterns among the two fractals are similar.
The bearish sequence that followed the previous 4H Golden Cross hit the 1.236 Fibonacci extension. As a result, we expect to see 91.000 by May.
