- A slightly weaker US Dollar into mid-November against many G10 currencies, primarily due to concerns regarding the path of tax reform legislation.
- However, AUDUSD has been consolidating sideways in November and retains the negative tone, that has been evident from September and that we highlighted here in October
- The NZDUSD FX rate, has corrected higher in early November, but we look for bearish pressures t start to resume into mid-November.
AUDUSD Bear threat
Another setback Friday, further rejecting Wednesday’s bounce with initial resistance at .7700 intact, sustaining negative pressures from the early November push through supports at .7637/36 and the late October sell off through the key .7731 level, aiming lower again Monday.
For Today:
- We see a downside bias for .7624/22; through here targets .7602, then .7568.
- But above .7700 opens risk up to .7730, maybe .7769.
Intermediate-term Outlook – Downside Risks:
- We see a negative tone with the bearish threat to .7568, maybe towards .7331.
- Below here targets the .7155/41 area.
What Changes This? Above .7986 signals a neutral tone, only shifting positive above .8125.
Resistance and Support:
| .7700 | .7730 | .7769 | .7796 | .7835* |
| .7624/22* | .7602 | .7568** | .7532** | .7516 |
