AUD/USD Price Analysis: Corrective bounce remains elusive below 0.6700

AUD/USD picks up bids to recover from fortnight-old horizontal support to snap two-day downtrend.
Short-term resistance line, 200-HMA prod immediate upside even as RSI rebound, bullish MACD signal favor intraday Aussie buyers.
One-week-long horizontal region act as the last defense of Aussie pair sellers.

AUD/USD refreshes intraday high near 0.6665 as it bounces off short-term key support to print the first daily gains in three amid early Monday. In doing so, the Aussie pair also justifies the RSI (14) line’s rebound from the oversold territory.

It’s worth noting, that the bullish MACD signals also favor the AUD/USD pair’s U-turn from a two-week-old horizontal support zone surrounding 0.6640.

However, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the pair’s run-up from April 28 to May 10, close to 0.6670, precedes a downward-sloping resistance line from May 10, near 0.6680 at the latest, to restrict short-term AUD/USD rebound.

Even if the AUD/USD pair rises past 0.6680, the 200-HMA and a horizontal area comprising multiple levels marked since May 05, close to 0.6750, can challenge the buyers before giving them control.

Alternatively, a downside break of the aforementioned horizontal support near 0.6640 won’t hesitate to challenge the late April swing low of around 0.6575.

Following that, the yearly low marked in March around 0.6565 may act as an extra filter towards the south.

Overall, the AUD/USD pair is likely to keep the latest recovery but the upside room appears limited.

AUD/USD consolidates above 0.7000; remains close to monthly top

AUD/USD holds steady above 0.7000 during the Asian session on Friday, trading just below the previous day's monthly low amid diverging forces. A hawkish RBA continues to support the Aussie, while the recent decline in US bond yields keeps the US Dollar depressed near a three-week low. However, oil-driven inflation fears reinforce Fed hike bets, which, along with geopolitical risks, could benefit the safe-haven buck and cap the currency pair.

USD/JPY bounces off one-month low; climbs to 157.00 amid reviving USD demand

USD/JPY rebounds from the 156.00 neighborhood, or a one-month low touched during Friday’s Asian session, with bulls looking to extend momentum beyond 157.00 amid the emergence of some US Dollar buying. Meanwhile, Japan's National CPI rose to a nine-month peak and reaffirmed BoJ rate-hike bets, which could support the Japanese Yen and cap gains for the currency pair.

Gold hits fresh three-month low below $4,000 amid surging energy prices

Gold slides to a fresh three-month low at $3,986.74 in the Asian trade on Friday. The precious metal faces intense selling pressure, following a consolidation breakdown that took place on the range between $4,227.90 and $4,066.64 in the past three weeks.

Cardano: Whale selling deepens correction

Cardano (ADA) edges higher by nearly 2% on Friday, following a roughly 6% decline the previous day. The pullback aligns with the sell-side appeal among large-wallet investors, commonly referred to as whales, and Cardano derivatives. The technical outlook for ADA is bearish, with downside momentum persisting. Whales are losing their appetite for holding ADA tokens, fueling near-term selling pressure.

The Bank of England just got its clearest reason to hike. Here's what it's really watching

UK inflation as measured by the CPI accelerated to 3.5% YoY in September, up from 3.1% in August, according to the Office for National Statistics. This is the highest level since October 2025, exceeding economists' expectations of 3.4% and pushing inflation further from the BoE's 2% target.

What November 3 means for the Fed's rate path and the US Dollar

The USD faces a decisive period ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. While markets anticipate another interest rate increase from the Fed in December, the battle for control of Congress could reshape fiscal policy expectations and, indirectly, the path of US monetary policy in 2027.
