Talking Points:

  • AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:0.8466, 0.8364, 0.8263

  • Resistance:0.8592, 0.8669, 0.8795

The Australian Dollar stalled after dropping to a four-year low against its US counterpart, finding support below the 0.85 figure. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci expansionat 0.8466 exposes the 50% level at 0.8364.Alternatively, a reversal above the 0.8552-92 area marked by the November 6 low and the 23.6% Fib opens the door for a challenge of the 0.8659-69 zone (January 2014 low, 14.6% expansion).

The available trading range is too narrow to justify taking a trade on the long or short side from a risk/reward perspective. With that in mind, we will remain flat for the time being and wait for an actionable opportunity to present itself.
