AUD/USD trading sideways – first resistance at 0.6645
|AUD/USD - NZD/USD
AUDUSD dipped a little but could not reach the next target in the bear trend. We topped 11 pips from first resistance at 6650/60. A bullish candle in oversold conditions on Friday may signal a more sideways direction at the start of this week.
NZDUSD also lower initially as expected but a bounce from 6301 held 6356. Again a minor bullish candle in oversold conditions could signal sideways movement this week.
Daily Analysis
AUDUSD could trade sideways so we move to a scalping strategy, rather than selling in to strength and holding shorts. Gains are likely to be limited with first resistance at 6645/50 but above 6660 meets a selling opportunity at 6680/90. Try shorts with stops above 6705.
Shorts at 6645/50 target 6625/20 for some profit taking, perhaps as far as 6590/80. A break lower targets 6565/55 & perhaps as far as 6535/25.
NZDUSD gains are likely to be limited with first resistance at 6345/50 & 2nd resistance at 6370/75. Shorts need stops above 6385 for a selling opportunity at 6405/15. Stop above 6430.
Shorts at 6370/75 target 6350/45 for some profit taking, perhaps as far as 6310/00. A break lower is always possible in the bear trend targeting 6280/75 & 6240/30.
