FxWirePro: AUD/USD consolidating around 0.7273 levels, outlook bullish
Monday, February 22, 2016 7:17 PM UTC
- AUD/USD inched higher to trade around one month high on Thursday as strong rebound in oil prices and Brexit fears supported Aussie bulls.
- Much of the move was due rise in metal prices and also due heavy selling in the pound on concerns of Britain's exit from Eurozone.
- Currently the pair is making an attempt to test support level at 0.9260.
- Further decline is expected to be limited as the pair finds strong support at 0.7190 which should limit downside and initiate rebound back towards higher side.
- To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 0.7237, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 0.7291.
- To the downside immediate support can be seen at 0.7191, a break below this level will open the door towards next level at 0.7145.
Recommendation: Go long around 0.7150, targets 0.7240, 0.7300, SL 0.7100
