AUD/USD – Continues to Remain Above Support at 0.77

AUD / USD - Tuesday, June 16, 2015

Finally on last week, the Australian dollar eased lower resistance below the key 0.7850 level but met reasonable support to 0.77, where it is currently trading above. To start this new week, it took the support of 0.77 and currently remains steady around 0.7750. In recent weeks, the 0.7850 resistance level has played a major role and continues to exert downward pressure on selling the AUD / USD. During this same period, it received strong support from the rock the long term support level at 0.76 which allowed him to bounce back strongly to more than 0.78 to more than one occasion. Throughout the second half of May, the Australian dollar fell sharply four-month high above 0.8150 to the level of key support at 0.76. This level was a significant level for a couple of months and has supported the Australian dollar on multiple occasions.

The recent price action has been a significant reversal, because there is not so long, the AUD / USD was in a strong long-term trend medium to having broken by the key 0.7850 level and reached the top four month above 0.8150. For most of this year, the Australian dollar has traded in a wide trading range between support at 0.76 and resistance around 0.7850. Earlier this year in February this range was narrower with the highest level of support 0.77. Throughout this period he has had reasonable swings back and forth between the two key levels with very few excursions beyond the levels.

The key level remains now 0.76 and it will be interesting to see how the support at this level can hold and stop the trend of sharp decline in the AUD / USD has experienced in recent weeks. The 4 hour chart below shows how constant the recent decline was, but also how significant the level of 0.76 to be able to temporarily halt the decline.
