FxWirePro: AUD/USD gains momentum after RBA holds rates steady

•  AUD/USD firmed on Tuesday after Reserve Bank of Australian   left its cash rate steady as expected.

• Australia’s central bank kept its cash rate unchanged at 3.60% and  noting that recent data pointed to inflation potentially running higher than forecast in the third quarter while the economic outlook remains uncertain.

• Concluding its two-day policy meeting, the Reserve Bank of Australia said the board deemed it appropriate to stay cautious on policy while remaining well positioned to respond to global developments.

• After a quarter-point cut in August, markets saw little chance of additional easing this week, while an elevated monthly consumer price reading reinforced the case for waiting until the full third-quarter inflation report in late October.

•  Immediate resistance is located at 0.6690(23.6%fib), any close above will push the pair towards 0.675(Higher BB)
