  • AUD/USD largely muted above 0.74 handle after bullish gap open in the Asian session today.
     
  • Aussie is likely to be supported on bouncing commodity prices. Scope for further upside.
     
  • The major finds strong trendline support at 0.7325, break below will accentuate weakness.
     
  • Price action has held trendline support and edged higher, holds above 21-EMA at 0.7415.
     
  • We see bullish divergence on RSI and Stochs which keeps scope for upside.
     
  • We see strong resistance at 50-DMA at 0.7475. Break above could see further upside. 
     
  • Scope then for test of major resistance at 0.7545 (falling trendline). Further gains only on break above. 

Support levels - 0.74, 0.7397 (5-DMA), 0.7325 (trendline)

Resistance levels - 0.7475 (50-DMA), 0.7483 (July 9,10 high), 0.7545 (trendline)

Recommendation: Good to go long on break above 50-DMA, SL: 0.74, TP: 0.75/ 0.7545
