EconoTimes — Reading the Times. Understanding the Future.

  • The Australian dollar edged lower to $0.7008, little changed from late Friday in New York, after dropping 2.4 percent last week

  • Diverging rate outlook between US and Australia, weighing on AUD/USD, markets give a one-in-three chance of a rate cut by RBA to 1.75 percent before the year end 

  • Daily price action remains well below the cloud and moving averages, Stochs on 4 hourlies are at oversold and show bearish crossover

  • Resistance is located at  0.7040 , while support was found at $0.6977, breaks below could see the pair at 0.6940 levels 

  • Market betting on China data (due later in the week) staying weak and possibly getting weaker, another negative for the pair

Recommendation: Good to sell rallies around 0.7020, SL: 0.7045, TP: 0.6980

Resistance Levels:

R1: 0.7040 (Sept 25 highs)

R2: 0.7059 (20 DMA)

R3: 0.7089 (Sept 23 highs)

Support Levels:

S1: 0.6977 (Sept 25 lows)

S2: 0.9645 (Sept 10 lows)

S3: 0.6937 (Sept 24 lows)
