AUD/USD
The last few months have seen the AUDUSD decline considerably from above 0.80 to it present trading levels around 0.76. About a month ago it met resistance around 0.79 which saw the currency sold off strongly to move it back to a then three month low near 0.76 a few weeks ago.
Since that time, it has rallied a little but then fallen further again to trade at a five month low just above 0.75. As I mentioned last week, the next most likely support might kick in around 0.75 which has supported it numerous times during this year.
The 0.80 level that I have spoken about numerous times in the last six months seems so far away now and it will be interesting to see if the 0.7750 level which provided plenty of resistance earlier in the year resurfaces and affects any rally attempts.
As I type this, it is currently trading around 0.7624.
