  • AUD/USD trades 0.55% higher on the day, breaks above 5-DMA at 0.7392.
     
  • The pair has bounced off strong trendline support on Thursday's trade.
     
  • We evidence a 'Spinning Top' formation at lows which raises scope for upside.
     
  • Further we also find bullish divergence on Stochs which adds to the upside bias.
     
  • Stochs are at oversold and on verge of rollover into neutral territory.
     
  • Close above 5-DMA likely to target 21-EMA at 0.7498. Break above 21-EMA finds next major resistance at 23.6% Fib at 0.7532.
     
  • On the flipside, failure to hold above 5-DMA could see test of trendline support at 0.7345. Violation there could see further weakness.

Support levels - 0.7394 (5-DMA), 0.7345 (trendline)

Resistance levels - 0.7498 (21-EMA), 0.7532 (23.6% Fib)

Recommendation: Watch for close above 5-DMA to go long, target 0.7490/ 0.7530
