AUD/USD lost some upside momentum after hitting 0.8022 and intraday bias is turned neutral for consolidations first. Further rally is expected as long as 0.7874 support holds. Above 0.8022 will extend the rise from 0.7500 to 0.8124 high. there will resume whole medium term rebound from 0.6826 and target key fibonacci level at 0.8451. On the downside, break of 0.7874 will indicate short term topping and turn bias to the downside for 55 day EMA (now at 0.7764).
In the bigger picture, current development suggests that medium term rebound from 0.6826 is still in progress and could be resuming. Such rise could target 38.2% retracement of 1.1079 (2011 high) to 0.6826 (2016 low) at 0.8451. As such rise is seen as a corrective move, we’d expect strong resistance from 0.8451 to limit upside.
