The light volume and lower volatility made AUDUSD possible trade bidirectionally. The initial rebound from 0.7050 made 30 pips initially as suggested on previous Session Recap webinar followed by a decline caused by investors dumping assets. Today's FED's chief Yellen testimony could be volatile and that is why I recommend caution. The testimony has been scheduled for 15:00 GMT. As head of the central bank, which controls short term interest rates, she has more influence over the nation's currency value than any other person so pay attention to subtle clues about future monetary policy.
Technically the AUDUSD could retrace towards POC zone (0.7125-40) that consists of H3, triple top, 61.8 and X-cross ™. However, we can also see Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern on H1 but also a HUGE Head and Shoulders variant characterized by the triple top.If the price rejects from POC it could target 0.7080-70 (EMA89 and 38.2 fib) potentially going lower towards 0.7030 and 0.7000. If the price makes a 4h close above 0.7150, bearish rejection could be negated.
The analysis and the article presents Nenad's opinion. Remember, financial trading is highly speculative & may lead to the loss of your funds. Proper risk management is the Holy Grail of trading.
