What can we expect from AUDUSD today?

AUDUSD on Wednesday dropped -0.54% to 0.65662. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is falling.

Updated daily direction for AUDUSD looks bearish as the pair posted lower in Wednesday trading session.

Looking ahead for the day, immediate support level is at S1 0.65372 with break below could see further selling pressure towards S2 at 0.65083. To the upside, with the current momentum bearish, we prefer to look at breakout of the recent daily high of 0.66227 as a potential indicator of buying interest. Failure to break the resistance level would continue to echo bearish sentiment. A close below 0.65510 would indicate selling pressure.

For the week to-date, take note that AUDUSD is mixed as compared to the prior week.

AUDUSD ended month of January trading session down by -3.55% or -241.5 pips lower.
