AUD/USD Price Analysis: Takes offers at fresh monthly low, 0.7225-20 in focus

  • AUD/USD extends losses to renews multi-day low, ignores oversold RSI conditions.
  • Bearish MACD, sustained trading below 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level directs sellers to two-month-old horizontal support.

AUD/USD remains on the back foot for the second consecutive day, refreshing monthly low to 0.7262 heading into Wednesday’s European session.

In doing so the Aussie pair extends pullback from a convergence of a fortnight-long resistance line and 50-SMA below the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement (Fibo.) of late September-October upside.

Given the bearish MACD signals favor AUD/USD sellers, the quote’s further declines towards a horizontal area comprising multiple lows marked since September 20, around 0.7225-20, can’t be ruled out.

However, the pair’s further weakness will be challenged by the oversold RSI conditions, which if ignored could drag the September’s low of 0.7170.

Meanwhile, the corrective pullback may eye the 61.8% Fibo. level of 0.7317 but remains ineffective until crossing the 0.7355 resistance confluence.

Even if the AUD/USD buyers manage to cross the 0.7355 hurdle, the 200-SMA around 0.7400 will be in focus.

AUD/USD sits near monthly top, above 0.7000 as renewed USD buying caps gains

AUD/USD holds a positive bias for the fourth straight day, trading above 0.7000 in the Asian session on Wednesday and near the monthly high set the previous day after RBA Deputy Governor Andrew Hauser's hawkish remarks. Meanwhile, the US Dollar attracts some buyers as energy-driven inflation fears keep bets for at least one Fed rate hike in 2026 firmly on the table. Moreover, geopolitical uncertainty is acting as a tailwind for the safe-haven buck and caps gains for the Aussie.

USD/JPY eyes 158.50 amid modest USD strength; remains confined in a familiar range

USD/JPY attracts some dip-buyers during the Asian session on Wednesday, though it remains confined within a multi-week range as the uncertainty over the timing of the next BoJ rate hike keep Japanese Yen bulls on the defensive. Meanwhile, hawkish Fed expectations, bolstered by inflation risks stemming from volatile oil prices, underpin the US Dollar. However, looming intervention fears could limit JPY losses and cap the currency pair.

Gold struggles near weekly low, just above $4,100 amid USD uptick

Gold remains depressed for the fourth straight day, flirting with the weekly low during Wednesday’s Asian session, with bears awaiting a sustained break below $4,100 before placing fresh bets. Energy-driven inflation fears keep Fed hike bets firmly on the table, reviving US Dollar demand and undermining the non-yielding bullion. However, an unconfirmed report of US-Iran diplomacy could cap the safe-haven buck, which could offer some support to the precious metal.

Ethereum bounces off $2,400 for a sixth day despite ETF outflows
Ethereum (ETH) bounced again near the $2,400 level on Tuesday, the sixth straight day, as its on-chain cost basis and key moving averages have stood as key support levels. The sub-$2,400 level has proven to be a strong support for the top altcoin over the past week amid macro pressures. Buyers have repeatedly stepped in to defend prices whenever it falls below the level.
SpaceX's earnings don't matter. What they unlock does

The Elon Musk-founded SpaceX reports third-quarter results after Tuesday's session. The figure that decides the next month for the stock isn't in them. On Thursday, the second full trading day after the release, up to 1.3 billion shares held by employees and early investors become eligible for sale.

The US Dollar fell. Gold didn't rally. That tells you everything
Gold (XAU/USD) is struggling to capitalize on a weaker US Dollar (USD), after repeatedly failing to establish itself above the $4,200 level. The precious metal remains confined to a relatively narrow trading range despite a combination of developments that would normally support higher prices.
