The AUDUSD sellers had their chance, but momentum fizzled.
Yesterday, the pair broke below key technical levels:
- The 200-bar MA on the 4-hour chart (green line on the chart above),
- A rising trendline, and the
- Prior week’s low.
Yet, each of those breaks failed. The rejection at the lows sparked a recovery today, and now the price is testing the 100-bar MA on the 4-hour chart around 0.6490 (blue line).
The price has been above that MA, but so far momentum has been limited. If momentum above the door opens toward the highs for the year once again.
If it fails, a rotation back lower and toward the 200 hour MA and trend line would be the targets.
📌 Key support:
-
200-bar MA (4H): ~0.6464
-
Trend line – 0.6458
-
Low for the day: 0.6445
📌 Key resistance:
-
100-bar MA (4H): ~0.6490
-
Upper swing area: 0.6534 – 0.6553
Buyers have regained the upper hand on the failed break lower —for now. Watch the moving averages to see if they keep it.
