AUD/USD chart - Trading View
AUD/USD was trading in a narrow range, consolidating previous session's rise.
Price action has slipped lower from session highs at 0.7230 and was hovering around 0.7222 at around 04:00 GMT.
Aussie fades upside momentum after the RBA minutes from the August month’s monetary policy meeting confirm policymakers’ dovish bias.
That said, a better-than-forecast weekly consumer sentiment for Australia cushions downside in the pair.
Data released earlier today showed Australia’s ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Sentiment Index printed at 88.6, above the prior month's 86.5.
Technical indicators support upside. Risk sentiment and political news will influence price action amid a data light calendar.
21-EMA is strong support at 0.7139. Break below will change near-term dynamics. On the upside, watch out for decisive break above 200W MA for further gains.
Major Support Levels:
S1: 0.72 (Psychological mark)
