With that said, speculation for a looming Federal Reserve rate cut may keep AUD/USD afloat, but the V-shape recovery in the exchange rate may unravel should it struggle to test the December high (0.6515).
AUD/USD Price Chart – Daily
Chart Prepared by David Song, Senior Strategist; AUD/USD on TradingView
- AUD/USD may attempt to test the December high (0.6515) as it trades to a fresh yearly high (0.6438), with a break/close above the 0.6510 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement) to 0.6520 (38.2% Fibonacci extension) region opening up 0.6590 (38.2% Fibonacci extension).
- Next area of interest comes in around the November high (0.6688), but AUD/USD may struggle to retain the advance from the start of the week should it fail to close above 0.6410 (50% Fibonacci extension).
- Need a move below 0.6240 (61.8% Fibonacci extension) to bring the 0.6130 (23.6% Fibonacci retracement) to 0.6140 (23.6% Fibonacci extension) area on the radar, with the next region of interest coming in around 0.5990 (78.6% Fibonacci extension) to 0.6020 (38.2% Fibonacci extension).
