AUD/USD outlook: Aussie falls to 1 1/2 month low on stronger greenback, expectations of RBA rate cut
|AUD/USD
The Australian dollar extends steep fall into fourth straight day (down 2.9% from last Friday's 0.7334 high) and falls to 1 1/2 - month low on Wednesday. Strong risk aversion continues to deflate Aussie, with additional negative signals seen from expectations that the RBA will cut interest rate from 0.25% to 0.1% in 6 Oct policy meeting.
Today's acceleration penetrated thick ascending daily cloud (cloud top lays at 0.7155) and dented Fibo support at 0.7095 (50% retracement of 0.6776/ 0.7413), with close below here to open way towards 0.7026/19 (daily cloud base/Fibo 61.8%) and psychological 0.70 support (reinforced by rising 100DMA). Negative scenario is supported by strong bearish configuration of daily techs, weakening weekly studies and formation of bearish engulfing on weekly chart.
