EUR/AUD stayed in range of 1.3872/4309 last week and outlook is unchanged. We continue to favor the case that larger fall from 1.6587 is completed at 1.3624, after defending 1.3671 key support. And the trend is reversing. Hence, another rise is anticipated after the consolidation from 1.4309 completes.
Initial bias in EUR/AUD stays neutral this week first. On the upside, break of 1.4215 minor resistance will turn bias to the upside for 1.4309. Break there will finally resume whole rise from 1.3624 and target 1.4721 key resistance next. On the downside, however, sustained break of 1.3872 will dampen our view of trend reversal. In that case, intraday bias will be turned back to the downside for retesting 1.3624 low, with prospect of extending the larger down trend.
In the bigger picture, price actions from 1.6587 medium term top are viewed as a corrective pattern. Such correction could be completed after testing 1.3671 key support. Break of 1.4721 cluster resistance (38.2% retracement of 1.6587 to 1.3624 at 1.4756) should confirm this case and target 61.8% retracement at 1.5455 and above. Overall, we’d expect the up trend from 1.1602 to resume later. However, sustained break of 1.3671 will invalidate our bullish view and would turn extend the fall from 1.6587 towards 1.1602 long term bottom.
In the longer term picture, the rise from 1.1602 long term bottom isn’t over yet. We’ll keep monitoring the development but there is prospect of extending the rise to 61.8% retracement of 2.1127 to 1.1602 at 1.7488 and above. However, sustained trading below 1.3671 should confirm trend reversal and target 1.1602 long term bottom again.
