The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
AUD/USD Analysis
The rise in bullish sentiment on the U.S. Dollar has blown the earlier slightly bullish technical picture out of the sky. The price has sliced through support levels like a hot knife through butter. I would be extremely careful taking any long trades today. It looks very likely that the price will fall further. Things might change later in the Asian session if the Australian inflation data comes in higher than expected. Sentiment and momentum look bearish and I take a bearish bias until then.
There is nothing due today regarding the USD. Concerning the AUD, there will be a release of CPI data at 2:30am London time.
