FxWirePro: AUD/USD dips below lower range, bearish bias increases

  • The AUD/USD declined sharply on Thursday as Australian dollar pressured by lower commodity prices and firmer dollar across the board.
     
  • Much of the Aussie weakness came after the Fed made positive comments on the job market, reinforcing expectations of a rate hike in June.
     
  • Also undermining the Aussie was a sharp 6.5 percent fall in iron ore on Wednesday.
     
  • The pair hit session lows at 0.7381, before retreating slightly to trade around 0.7398 levels in the afternoon US session.
     
  • The currency pair remains under bears control unless until it trades below 0.7478 resistance level, therefore it is good to sell this pair on rally.
     
  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 0.7478, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 0.7545.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 0.7380, a break below this level will open the door towards next level at 0.7319.
