Out of all the currencies the AUDUSD looks to me to be the best selling opportunity at the moment.
We’ve got a good trendline with 4 touches coming in around 0.7665 and it coincides with a break down in the Ichimoku cloud as well. That’s a double whammy in my books and a great set up for a trade.
The one uncertainty, and it’s a pretty big one for that matter, is the release of the FOMC minutes later today.
If we get any hawkish sentiment from the FED then the AUDUSD is going to be the best placed to be 100 points lower tomorrow.
The fact the FED minutes are scheduled is enough to reduce the trade size but other than that the trade is still good to go!
Good Luck
