Downtrend, compressing near 0.7000 · RSI 44 · price 0.69976

Lower highs and lower lows from London high, tight early-Asia band above session low.

AUD/USD stepped lower from the 0.7031 London high, setting lower highs at the 0.7021 NY high and the 0.7005 lower high before an NY-hours session low at 0.6994. Pre-RBA de-risking outweighed a softer USD. Early Asia is compressing in a 0.6994–0.7001 band just under the 0.7000 round number, RSI(14) near 44.

Support: 0.6994

Resistance: 0.7001, 0.7005, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the lower-high sequence and puts the descending line near 0.7009 in play
  • Failure to hold the 0.6994 session low extends the lower-low chain
  • Rebounds toward the 0.7021 NY high meet the descending line from the London high first
  • RBA decision and SMP at 03:30 UTC, presser 04:30 UTC, could materially shift this read; current ~3 pip ATR reflects thin pre-event trade

23:32 UTC

Downtrend, momentum stalling near 0.7000 · RSI 45 · price 0.69971

Lower highs and lower lows from the 0.7034 Asia high; tight coil at the day low.

Monday printed a clean lower-high sequence (0.7034 Asia, 0.7031 London, 0.7021 NY high), and the late-NY day low at 0.6994 sits just under the 0.7000 psych level. Price is now coiling in a 3-pip rollover range below the lower-highs trendline, with AUD heavy on pre-RBA de-risking despite a softer USD.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision and SoMP at 03:30 UTC (~4h), with the press conference at 04:30 UTC, could materially shift this read. A hike is largely priced, so the guidance tone is the swing factor.
  • An M15 close back above the 0.7000 psych level and the lower-highs trendline would break the intraday sequence.
  • Reclaiming the 0.7005 lower high, which sits at the 38.2% retrace of the NY high–day low leg, would signal a deeper retracement toward 0.7021.
  • Failure to hold the 0.6994 day low extends the lower-low chain.

23:16 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading into quiet tape · RSI 39 · price 0.69945

Lower highs at 0.7021 and 0.7005, compressing below 0.7000.

AUD bled from the 0.7034 Asian high to a session low at 0.6994 as pre-RBA de-risking outweighed a softer USD. The NY high at 0.7021 and the lower high at 0.7005 extend the lower-high chain. Price is now pinned just under the 0.7000 psych handle in thin late-NY trade, with ATR compressed to about 3 pips.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.70007, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision and SoMP at 03:30 UTC, presser 04:30 UTC, likely to break the current compression
  • M15 close back above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the lower-high sequence and puts the 0.7021 NY high in view
  • Failure to hold the 0.6994 session low extends the lower-low chain below the psych 0.7000 handle

23:03 UTC

Intraday downtrend, momentum flattening · RSI 44 · price 0.69972

Lower highs and lower lows below 0.7000 psych, tight range at Asia open.

The NY decline from the 0.7021 NY high pushed AUD/USD through the 0.7000 psych level to a 0.6994 session low. Aussie softness came on pre-RBA de-risking despite a weaker USD. Lower highs at 0.7005 and 0.7001 cap the new Asia session, RSI(14) neutral near 44 and ATR around 3 pips.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and Bullock presser at 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read
  • Close back above the 0.7005 lower high and descending trendline breaks the lower-high chain
  • Failure to hold the 0.6994 session low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Reclaim of the 0.7021 NY high negates the intraday downtrend read

22:47 UTC

Downtrend, quiet after NY close · RSI 42 · price 0.69957

Lower highs and lower lows, Asian range broken lower.

Highs stepped lower from the 0.7034 Asia top to the 0.7031 London rejection and the 0.7021 NY high. London broke the 0.7014 Asian range low, and price is now pinned under the 0.7000 round number just above the 0.6994 session low. AUD lagged into the RBA despite a softer dollar, and post-NY trade is thin with ATR near 3 pips.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and Bullock's 04:30 UTC press conference could materially shift this read. A pause or dovish hike risks a break of the 0.6994 session low.
  • An M15 close above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the lower-highs sequence and puts the 0.7021 NY high back in play.
  • Repeated rejection at the 0.7000 round number keeps the downtrend structure intact.

22:32 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 41 · price 0.69961

Lower highs and lower lows since the London high, capped below 0.7000.

AUD/USD stepped down from the 0.7031 London high through the 0.7021 NY high, breaking the Asian range low at 0.7013 and the 0.7000 round number to a 0.6994 day low as traders cut exposure ahead of the RBA. The late NY bounce was rejected at 0.7001, back under the descending trendline. RSI(14) sits near 41 and ATR(14) is about 3.4 pips, with price drifting into the Asia session.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • A close back above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the descending trendline and the lower-high chain
  • A break of the 0.6994 day low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Holding below the 0.7000 round number keeps the London high-to-day low fib retracement shallow
  • An M15 close above the 0.7021 NY high would invalidate the downtrend read
  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC, then Bullock at 04:30 UTC, could materially shift this read

22:17 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs, momentum flattening · RSI 46 · price 0.70007

Lower highs from 0.70309 into 0.69938 session low, now basing on 0.7000.

Lower highs ran from the 0.70309 London high to the 0.7021 NY high and the 0.70051 lower high, with the session low at 0.69938 printed late in NY as AUD lagged into the RBA. Price is now pinned to the 0.7000 round number in thin post-NY trade, below the descending trendline. RSI(14) is near 46 and ATR(14) is around 3 pips.

Support: 0.7000, 0.69938

Resistance: 0.70051, 0.7021, 0.70309

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 0.70051 lower high breaks the lower-high chain; the descending trendline and fib 38.2% sit near 0.7008-0.7010.
  • Failure to hold the 0.7000 round number re-exposes the 0.69938 session low; a break below it extends the lower-low sequence.
  • Reclaiming the 0.7021 NY high would neutralise the downtrend read; the 0.70309 London high is the upper bound of the window.
  • The RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and Bullock's press conference at 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read.

22:04 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 37 · price 0.69979

LH/LL chain from 0.7021 NY high; price retesting 0.7000 from below.

AUD sold off from the 0.7021 NY high and printed lower highs, slipping below the 0.7000 psych handle to a 0.6994 day low after NY close as the pair stayed heavy into the RBA. The late bounce off the day low is shallow, with price retesting 0.7000 from below and RSI(14) recovering from the low 30s.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision Tue 03:30 UTC and Bullock presser at 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read
  • Close back above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the lower-high chain
  • Failure below the 0.6994 day low extends the lower-low sequence
  • Rejection at 0.7000 psych keeps the retest-from-below read intact

21:47 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading into the close · RSI 35 · price 0.69971

Lower highs and lower lows since London, holding just under 0.7000.

London broke below the Asian low at 0.70132, and late NY pushed through the 0.7000 psych handle to a day low at 0.69938. The lower-high chain runs from the NY high at 0.7021 to the 0.70051 lower high, with pre-RBA de-risking weighing on AUD despite a softer USD. RSI(14) sits near 35, price is below both EMAs and ATR has compressed to about 3.5 pips as the session thins.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • A close back above 0.7000 psych and the descending trendline would stall the lower-high sequence
  • A break of the 0.70051 lower high negates the intraday downtrend read
  • Failure to hold the 0.69938 day low extends the lower-low chain
  • The RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and Bullock's press conference at 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read

21:32 UTC

Downtrend, momentum fading near lows · RSI 33 · price 0.69951

Lower highs and lower lows below 0.7000.

AUDUSD set lower highs at 0.7031 in London and at the 0.7021 NY high, then broke below the Asian range and the 0.7000 psych to a 0.6994 session low late in NY. The move came on pre-RBA de-risking despite a softer USD. The last bounce stalled at the 0.7005 swing high, near the 38.2% of the NY sell-off, with RSI(14) at 33 and ATR around 3.6 pips.

Support: 0.69938

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • Holding below the 0.7000 psych keeps the lower-high sequence intact. A close back above the 0.7005 swing high and the 38.2% fib breaks it.
  • A break of the 0.6994 session low extends the lower-low chain into the Asian session.
  • A recovery through the 0.7021 NY high and the lower-highs line invalidates the downtrend read.
  • The RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and Bullock's press conference at 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read. Guidance on peak rates is the swing factor.

21:02 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 29 · price 0.69946

Lower-high chain from London high, pressing session low under 0.70.

Lower highs from the 0.70309 London high to the 0.7021 NY high. The post-ISM bounce faded as the dollar's lift gave way and AUD exposure was trimmed ahead of the RBA. After a rejection at the 0.70051 swing high, price slipped back under the 0.70 handle into the NY close and is printing a fresh session low at 0.69946, RSI(14) near 29.

Support: 0.69946, 0.6990

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC during the Asia session could materially shift this read
  • M15 close back above the 0.70 handle and the 0.70051 swing high breaks the lower-high chain
  • Close through the lower highs trendline and the 0.7021 ny high invalidates the downtrend read
  • Failure to hold the 0.69946 session low exposes the 0.6990 round number

20:47 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 29 · price 0.69975

Lower-high chain below the 0.7000 handle.

AUD broke the Asian low at 0.7013 in London and slipped through the 0.7000 round number late in the NY session. Lower highs have stepped down from 0.7031 to the 0.7005 lower high, with RSI(14) near 29. Pre-RBA de-risking and weak China PMIs weighed despite a softer USD; the 0.6996 session low is the nearest test.

Support: 0.69959

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.70132

What it said to watch

  • Close back above the 0.7005 lower high breaks the lower-high trendline and stalls the sequence
  • Failure to hold the 0.6996 session low extends the lower-low chain
  • Rejection at the 0.7000 round number keeps supply capping; 38.2% fib of the London high-to-session low drop sits at 0.7009, near the 0.7013 asian low
  • RBA decision Tue 03:30 UTC and Bullock presser 04:30 UTC could materially shift this read during the Asia session

20:32 UTC

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 30 · price 0.69995

Lower highs and lower lows since the London high; price pinned at 0.7000.

London broke below the 0.7013–0.7034 Asian range after the 0.7031 high, and the line of lower highs held the NY rebound at 0.7021 before a late-NY leg set a session low at 0.6996. Price now sits just under the 0.7000 psych handle as traders trim AUD exposure into the RBA. RSI(14) is near 30.

Support: 0.69959

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70051, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 0.7005 bounce high breaks the micro lower-high chain; the lower highs trendline sits near 0.7013.
  • A close above the 38.2% retrace of the drop (~0.7009) would ease the downtrend read.
  • Acceptance below the 0.6996 session low extends the lower-low sequence.
  • The NY high at 0.7021 marks the last lower high in the chain.
  • The RBA decision at 03:30 UTC and overnight US midterm results could materially shift this read.

20:17 UTC

Downtrend, testing 0.7000 handle · RSI 30 · price 0.69999

Lower highs and lower lows since London; late-NY grind at the session low.

AUD lost the asian low at 0.7014 in late NY and printed a session low at 0.6996 as traders trimmed exposure into the RBA. Lower highs at the 0.7021 ny high, 0.7014 and 0.7005 define the slide. The last bounce was rejected at the 38.2% fib of the NY decline, and price is pinned at the 0.7000 round number with RSI(14) near 30.

Support: 0.69959

Resistance: 0.70051, 0.70143, 0.7021

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7005 38.2% fib breaks the lower-high chain, with the 0.7014 asian low next overhead
  • Failure to hold the 0.6996 session low extends the lower-low sequence below the round number
  • Recovery above the 0.7021 ny high invalidates the intraday downtrend read
  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC (05:30 broker) could materially shift this read; hike guidance on further tightening versus a near-peak signal is the swing factor

20:02 UTC

Downtrend, pressing the 0.7000 handle · RSI 31 · price 0.70005

Lower highs from the NY high, fresh session low at 0.6996.

AUD sold off through late NY hours as traders trimmed exposure into the RBA. Price carved lower highs from the 0.7021 ny high and printed a session low at 0.6996. The 13:15 UTC dip below 0.7000 was a false break that recovered on post-ISM USD softness, and price is back retesting the psych handle with RSI(14) near 31.

Support: 0.7000, 0.69959

Resistance: 0.70143, 0.7021, 0.7034

  • Reclaim of the 0.7014 lower high breaks the lower-highs line from the NY high

19:46 UTC

Intraday downtrend, testing 0.7000 · RSI 29 · price 0.69987

Lower highs since London; marginal lower low under 0.7000.

AUD/USD has printed lower highs from the 0.7031 London peak through the 0.7021 NY high and the 0.7014 lower high. Late NY slipped to a 0.6996 session low as pre-RBA de-risking kept AUD heavy. Price is now pinned just under the 0.7000 psych level, with RSI(14) near 29 and both EMAs overhead.

Support: 0.69962

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70143, 0.7021

  • Failure to hold the 0.6996 session low extends the lower-low sequence
  • A rally capped below the 0.7021 NY high keeps the descending trendline intact
  • RBA decision at 03:30 UTC (05:30 broker) and the 04:30 UTC presser could materially shift this read

Downtrend, lower highs through London and NY · RSI 29 · price 0.69988

Lower-high/lower-low chain, price just below the 0.7000 handle late NY.

Lower highs at 0.7031, the 0.7021 NY high and the 0.7014 lower high carried price back through the 0.7000 round number late in NY, printing a 0.6996 session low with RSI(14) near 29. The post-ISM bounce from 0.6999 failed back inside the Asian range as AUD was trimmed into the RBA, and the current bar is capped at 0.7000 on the retest.

Support: 0.69962

Resistance: 0.7000, 0.70143, 0.7021

What it said to watch

London broke the 0.7013–0.7034 Asian range lower from the 0.7031 london high. The post-ISM bounce stalled at the 0.7021 ny high and a 0.7014 lower high followed. Late NY is now retesting the 0.6999 day low at the 0.7000 psych handle, RSI(14) near 31, as AUD exposure is trimmed into the RBA.

Lower-high chain capping a retest of the 0.70 round number.

London broke below the 0.7013–0.7034 Asian range from the 0.7031 London high. Late NY is back on the 0.7000 round number after successive lower highs at the 0.7021 NY high and the 0.7014 lower high, as AUD trims exposure ahead of the RBA.

What it said to watch

  • Failure to hold the 0.7000 round number (day low 0.6999) confirms a lower-low

Intraday downtrend, lower highs into late NY · RSI 34 · price 0.70028

Lower highs from 0.7021, retesting the 0.6999 day low.

London broke below the Asian range after capping under the 0.7034 asia high. The NY rebound from the 0.6999 day low stalled at the 0.7021 ny high and has been almost fully retraced, with a lower high at 0.7014 as AUD sheds exposure ahead of the RBA. Price sits just above the day low and the 0.7000 handle late in the NY session, RSI(14) near 34.

Intraday downtrend, lower highs since London · RSI 37 · price 0.7006

Lower highs from 0.7031; 0.6999 NY low holding.

London broke the 0.7013 Asian range low, and the NY open swept the 0.70 handle to a 0.6999 NY low before rebounding. That rebound was rejected at the 0.7021 NY high after the ISM beat. Late NY has printed a lower high at 0.7014 while twin lows at 0.7006 hold, with price sitting between the 61.8% and 78.6% of the rebound fib as positioning thins into the RBA.

Support: 0.70062, 0.69991

Resistance: 0.70143, 0.7021, 0.70309

Intraday downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 40 · price 0.70103

Lower highs 0.7031 → 0.7021 after a sweep below 0.7000; drifting toward the swing low.

AUD stalled at the 0.7031 London high, broke below the Asian range low near 0.7018 and swept just under 0.7000 to the 0.6999 session low around the US ISM release. NY then bounced to 0.7021. Late in the NY session, price is back near 0.7010, below the 0.7014 minor high and rotating toward the 0.7006 swing low, which sits close to the 61.8% retrace of the NY bounce. Pre-RBA position trimming has kept AUD heavy despite softer US data details.

Support: 0.70064, 0.69991

Resistance: 0.70143, 0.7021, 0.70309

What it said to watch

Lower high at 0.7021 after the 0.70 sweep, higher low at 0.7006 so far.

AUD slid through London from the 0.7031 london high as traders pared exposure into the RBA. Around NY open it swept below the 0.70 handle to a 0.6999 session low and reclaimed it. The bounce was rejected at the 0.7021 bounce high, and price is back near the 50% fib of the bounce at 0.7010, sitting just above a 0.7006 swing low on rising support, with RSI(14) neutral at 46.

Downtrend, lower highs intact · RSI 44 · price 0.70074

Lower highs 0.7034/0.7031/0.7021, price retracing NY bounce.

After topping at 0.7034 in Asia, AUD printed lower highs at the 0.7031 London high and the 0.7021 NY high, with the dip to 0.6999 a false break of the 0.70 psych handle. Late NY has given back most of that bounce to the 61.8% retrace near 0.7007, just above the 0.7003 swing low, as pre-RBA de-risking weighs; RSI(14) mid-40s, ATR about 4.4 pips.

Lower highs off 0.7021, sitting on NY range floor.

London sold AUD from the 0.7031 london high through the psych 0.70 handle to 0.6999. The pre-RBA de-risking flagged in the digest drove the move before NY reclaimed the level and bounced to a 0.7021 ny high, near the 61.8% of the London sell-off. Late NY has printed lower highs back onto the 0.7013 ny low, with RSI(14) neutral near 50.

Rebound from session low, stalling · RSI 51 · price 0.70169

Higher lows off 0.6999, capped at 0.7021.

London sold off from the 0.7031 london high, and NY briefly broke below the 0.7000 handle to a 0.6999 session low before a sharp reversal. AUD had underperformed into the RBA as traders trimmed exposure. The rebound stalled twice at the 0.7021 ny high, and price is now compressing at 0.7013–0.7021 above a rising line, sitting near the 50–61.8% zone of the selloff fib with RSI(14) neutral and EMA50 almost flat beneath price.

Lower highs from London, false break of 0.7000, tight consolidation 0.7013–0.7021.

AUD bled through London from the 0.7031 london high to a false break of the 0.7000 round number (day low 0.6999) as pre-RBA trimming weighed, then recovered in NY to a 0.7021 ny high. Since London close price has compressed between the 0.7013 range floor and 0.7021, holding the 23.6% of the recovery leg, sitting just above EMA20/EMA50 with RSI(14) near 58.

London faded from its 0.7031 high, broke the Asian low near 0.7013 and dipped through 0.7000 psych to 0.6999 before NY reclaimed the handle. The rebound capped at the 0.7021 NY high, just above the 61.8% fib of the London drop. Price is compressing at the 50% retrace and the NY low after London close, with AUD heavy into the RBA.

Higher lows off the 0.7000 sweep, capped at the 0.7021 NY high.

London took AUD/USD through the Asian low and the NY open swept the 0.7000 round number (0.6999) as AUD lagged into the RBA. The rebound since has built higher lows to 0.7013 and stalled at the 0.7021 NY high, near the 61.8% retrace of the London sell-off. RSI(14) neutral at ~56, ATR ~5.5 pips late in the NY session.

Lower high at 0.7021 after London slide; rising lows off the 0.70 handle.

AUD slid through London from the 0.7031 London high to a 0.69995 low as traders trimmed exposure ahead of Tuesday's RBA. The 0.70 handle held and the NY rebound met a rejection twice at the 0.7021 NY high, near the 61.8% retrace. Price sits at 0.7015, pinned at EMA50 with RSI(14) ~56, and rising lows hold above the 0.7013 pullback low.

Lower high at 0.7021 under the 0.7031 London high, back inside the Asian range.

London faded from its 0.7031 high and briefly broke the 0.7000 round number at the NY open (low 0.6999). That false break reversed as USD softened on mixed ISM data, but the rebound stalled at a 0.7021 NY high, a lower high near the 61.8% retrace of the London-NY fib. Price sits just above the Asian low and is pinned on the EMA50 near the 50% retrace, with AUD held back into Tuesday's RBA.

Intraday downtrend, NY rebound in progress · RSI 56 · price 0.70186

London lower highs into 0.6999, NY higher-low chain since.

Pre-RBA de-risking dragged AUD through the asian low during London to a 0.6999 day low at the NY open, a brief false break of psych 0.7000. NY has since printed higher lows back above the asian low, retracing ~61.8% of the London drop and stalling at the 0.7021 ny high with RSI(14) neutral at 56.

Lower highs from Asian high; 0.7000 swept, rebound capped at 61.8%.

Pre-RBA de-risking extended the lower highs from the 0.7034 Asian high to the 0.7031 London high. London then broke the 0.7014 Asian low, and early NY swept the 0.7000 psych level to 0.6999. The rebound stalled at the 0.7020 NY high, the 61.8% of the London high to day low drop, and price now sits just above the Asian low with RSI(14) near 56.

London sold off from the 0.7031 London high on pre-RBA de-risking and broke below 0.7000. The 0.6999 session low proved a false break, and NY reclaimed the descending trendline. The rebound stalled just under the 0.7020 NY high, the 61.8% fib area, and price now sits at the 50% retrace near 0.7015, pinned against EMA50.

Lower highs from Asia into a London break lower; NY higher-high/higher-low rebound off the sweep low.

London extended pre-RBA AUD selling, breaking the asian low at 0.7013. The drop swept the 0.7000 handle to a 0.6999 session low in early NY hours before a sharp reclaim. The rebound has retested the asian low as support and is stalling at the ny high 0.7020, at the 61.8% fib of the London drop. Price is back above EMA20 and only marginally above EMA50, with RSI(14) near 57.

Intraday downtrend, corrective bounce off 0.7000 · RSI 56 · price 0.7015

London lower highs into a false break of 0.7000, then a micro higher low.

London sold off from the 0.7031 london high through the Asian low as AUD trimmed exposure before the RBA. The first hour of NY briefly cracked 0.7000 to a 0.6999 session low, but the move was reclaimed at once. A 0.7001 higher low followed, and price now sits at the 50% retracement near 0.7015, testing EMA50 from below with RSI(14) near 56.

Lower highs from London high; false break of 0.7000 reclaimed.

London faded from the 0.7031 London high through the 0.7013 Asian low. Early NY briefly broke 0.7000 to a 0.6999 session low before reclaiming the handle, as AUD stayed heavy into the RBA. Price is now pressing the 0.7013 Asian low, which coincides with the 38.2% of the London sell-off fib and the lower-highs line.

Downtrend, stalling at 0.7000 · RSI 43 · price 0.70049

Lower highs since London; NY compressing between 0.7000 and 0.7013.

London set a lower high at 0.7031, below the 0.7034 asian high, then broke the 0.7013 asian low as AUD stayed heavy on pre-RBA trimming and risk-off. Early in the NY session price dipped to 0.6999, just under the 0.7000 psych, and reclaimed it within a bar. The rebound spike met rejection at the former asian low, and price now sits mid-NY inside a 13-pip box below EMA20, with RSI(14) in the low 40s.

  • An M15 close back above 0.7013 asian low reclaims the 38.2% retracement and puts the 0.7031 london high back in view

Lower highs from the 0.7031 London high; false break below 0.7000 in early NY.

Risk-off and pre-RBA caution weighed on AUD as London sold off from the 0.7031 london high through the 0.7013 asian low. Early NY briefly broke 0.7000, but the 0.6999 sweep low was rejected with a spike back to 0.7013. Price is now holding just above the 0.7004 swing low with RSI(14) near 40.

Lower highs and lower lows since the 0.7031 London high, below the Asian range.

London rejected at the 0.7031 london high and broke the 0.7013 Asian low by mid-morning. Since then a lower high/lower low chain under a falling trendline has carried price into the first hour of NY, tagging a 0.6999 session low at the 0.7000 psych handle. Iran-driven risk-off and pre-RBA caution fit the drift; RSI(14) near 31 is soft but not oversold.

London's bounce stalled at the 0.7031 london high, just under the Asian high. The following leg broke the 0.7014 asian low, with risk-off and the soft AU manufacturing PMI weighing. Into the NY open, price is basing in a 0.7003–0.7011 band, the day low tested twice just above the 0.7000 psych level; RSI(14) ~36, ATR ~4 pips.

  • Break of the 0.7011 range top and the london high downtrend line shifts the read from base to recovery

London broke below the Asian low at 0.7013 and extended to a 0.7003 session low, with AUD heavy on risk-off and pre-RBA caution. The bounce off the London drop stalled under the 38.2% retracement at the 0.7011 lower high. Price is pinned just above the 0.7000 round number into the London-NY transition, RSI(14) near 33 and not yet oversold.

London faded from the 0.7031 london high and broke the asian low at 0.7013, which is also Friday's low, as risk-off and the soft AU manufacturing PMI weighed. The pair set a session low at 0.7003 just above the 0.7000 psych handle and is now bouncing late in London toward the broken asian low, which sits near the 38.2% fib of the London drop.

London faded from the 0.7031 london high through the 0.7013 asian low to a session low at 0.7003, just above the 0.7000 psych handle, as safe-haven USD demand on Iran headlines weighed on AUD.

The drop extended to a 0.7003 session low just above the 0.7000 round number as Iran headlines lifted haven USD.

London broke below the Asian low and Friday's low near 0.7013. Lower highs from the 0.7031 London high carried price to a 0.7003 session low as Iran headlines revived haven USD flows. Price is now pressing the 0.7000 psych with RSI(14) near 23, oversold.

Resistance: 0.70132, 0.70309

What it said to watch

  • A close back above the 0.7013 asian low, which sits at the 38.2% of the London leg, would turn the range break into a false break
  • Sustained trade below the 0.7000 psych extends the lower-low chain beyond the session low
  • A break of the lower-high line, then the 0.7031 london high, negates the intraday downtrend read
  • US ISM Manufacturing at 15:00 UTC and Goolsbee at 16:15 UTC could shift this read; the RBA decision on Tue 03:30 UTC is the larger risk for the 0.7000 handle

Downtrend, lower highs from 0.7034 · RSI 30 · price 0.70078

Asian range low broken in London, lower-high chain intact.

London rejected 0.7031 at the London high, then broke the Asian low at 0.7013 and printed a 0.7007 day low as safe-haven USD demand on Iran headlines weighed on AUD. The lower-high chain from 0.7034 is intact, price sits below both EMAs with RSI(14) near 30, and the 0.7000 round number is 7 pips away.

Lower highs from London high, Asian range broken lower.

London stalled at 0.70309, below the 0.70340 Asian high, then broke the 0.70137 Asian low to a 0.70075 session low as safe-haven USD demand and mixed China PMIs weighed on AUD. RSI(14) sits near 35 with price below both EMAs, and the 0.7000 psych handle is about 7 pips under the session low.

Asian range broken to the downside; London printing fresh session lows.

London faded from the 0.7031 london high, a lower high under the 0.7034 asian high, and broke the 0.7013 asian low to set a session low at 0.7008. RSI(14) is near 31 and the 0.7000 psych handle sits 8 pips below, with AUD heavy into tomorrow's RBA on safe-haven USD demand and mixed China PMIs.

Asian range broken to the downside, lower-low sequence intact.

London session ran to a 0.7031 london high, then reversed through the 0.7013 asian low and prior-day low to a 0.7008 session low, as AUD lagged the majors ahead of the RBA.

Lower high at 0.7031, break below Asian range low to a new session low.

Mid-London, the bounce stalled at the 0.7031 London high. That marks another lower high under the 0.7034 Asian high, and the slide has since cut through the 0.7013 Asian low and Friday's low to a new session low at 0.7010. AUD stays heavy on safe-haven USD demand into Tuesday's RBA. RSI(14) sits at 36, not oversold, with the 0.7000 round number about 10 pips below.

Lower high at 0.70309 under the Asian high, then a break below the Asian range low.

London's bounce was rejected at 0.70309, a lower high under the 0.70340 Asian high, and the London drop has now cleared the Asian low at 0.70132 and Friday's 0.70135 for a session low at 0.70122. The USD safe-haven bid on Iran headlines is keeping AUD heavy ahead of the RBA. RSI(14) at 37 is not stretched, with the 0.7000 round number about 12 pips below.

0.7013–0.7034 range, lower highs off Asian high.

Monday is holding a 0.7013–0.7034 range after a small weekend gap lower. London's push from the 0.7014 session low met rejection at the 0.7031 london high, below the 0.7034 asian high, and has been almost fully unwound, with price under both EMAs and RSI(14) at 44. Safe-haven USD demand on Iran headlines keeps AUD heavy near the 0.7000 psych level into Tuesday's RBA.

Range 0.7013–0.7034, London bounce faded at 0.7031.

AUDUSD gapped about 6 pips lower at the weekend open and has held the Asian range (0.7013–0.7034). The London low at 0.7014 matched the Sunday low and drew a bounce to 0.7031, but that London high was rejected and price is back at the 50% retracement near 0.7022. Safe-haven USD demand on Iran headlines and positioning ahead of Tuesday's RBA decision are keeping the pair heavy near 0.7000.

Higher lows off a 0.7013–0.7014 double bottom, inside the 0.7013–0.7034 Asian range.

The Asia session faded from the 0.7034 Asian high to a dbl bottom at 0.7013–0.7014, matching Friday's low, as risk-off flows kept AUD heavy. Demand stepped in at that dbl bottom into London open, and the London leg ran to 0.7031 on softer USD, with rising lows intact. Price is now holding the 0.7025 pullback low, about a 30% retrace of that leg.

Intraday uptrend off the session low · RSI 62 · price 0.70293

London HH/HL chain after a double bottom at 0.7014, inside the 0.7013–0.7034 Monday range.

London reversed the Asian slide after a double bottom at the 0.7014 swing low. Price cleared the 0.7024 neckline and built higher highs and higher lows up to a 0.7031 London high, as a softer USD offset Monday's risk-off AUD drag. The pair has retraced about 78% of the Asian drop from 0.7034, with RSI(14) near 62; the Asia high and the 0.7040 Friday high sit directly overhead.

  • Failure at the 0.7014 swing low exposes the 0.7000 psych handle

Rebounding off session low, higher lows since London open · RSI 58 · price 0.7028

Asia lower-high chain broken at London open; higher lows inside Friday's 0.7013–0.7040 range.

London open reversed the Asian-session slide off a double bottom near the 0.7013 Monday low. Higher lows lifted price through the 0.7025 broken high to a 0.7029 London high, into the 61.8–78.6% retracement of the Asian decline. Softer USD on Iran-diplomacy headlines is offsetting the risk-off AUD tone, with the 0.7034 Asian high and 0.7040 Friday high overhead.

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.7034, 0.7040

Double bottom at 0.7014 broken higher; price mid-range below the Asian high.

AUDUSD gapped lower from Friday's close at 0.7032, swept to 0.7013 early in Asia, then slid into a second low at 0.7014 into London, held up by Iran risk-off and soft China PMIs. The double bottom cleared its 0.7024 neckline in the first hour of London, which lifted RSI(14) to about 62 and put price back above the 61.8% retracement of the Asian fib, with the 0.7034 Asian high and the 0.7032 gap fill overhead.

Support: 0.70237, 0.70135, 0.7000

  • M15 close back below the 0.7024 neckline undoes the double bottom breakout

AUD gapped lower from the 0.70321 friday close and has printed lower highs off the 0.70340 asian high along a descending trendline, as Iran risk-off and weak China PMIs weighed. Early London retested the 0.70135 session low and was rejected. Price is back at the 50% fib near 0.7023 and pressing the trendline, with RSI(14) neutral around 51.

Lower highs since Asian high; twin lows at 0.7013-14.

AUDUSD gapped below Friday's 0.7032 close and sold off through Asia from the 0.7034 Asian high on risk-off and weak China PMIs. London open tested the friday low near 0.7014 a second time and bounced back above the ema20. Price is now pressing the lower-highs trendline near the 50% retrace of the Asian selloff, with RSI(14) neutral around 52.

AUD has bled lower through the Asia session from the 0.7034 Asian high in a lower-high sequence, weighed by Iran risk-off and weak China PMIs. Into London open, a probe to 0.70137 was rejected just above the Friday low at 0.70135, the same area swept at the Sunday open. Price is now pinned just under EMA20 with RSI near 47.

Lower highs through Asia from 0.7034; pressing session low near Friday low.

AUD opened the week with a ~6-pip gap lower and a sweep to 0.7013 that was bought back. Asia has since printed lower highs off the 0.7034 asian high and ground down to a 0.7016 session low on the China PMI miss and safe-haven USD demand. Price sits below both EMAs ahead of London open, with the 0.7013 Friday low just beneath.

Lower highs since 02:00 UTC, pressing session low.

AUD/USD gapped about 6 pips lower at the weekly open on weak China PMIs and Middle East risk-off. The early dip to the 0.7013 asian low was bought back to the 0.7034 asian high. Since 02:00 UTC the Asia session has printed a chain of lower highs, the latest at 0.7025, and price is now testing the 0.7018 session low into the London open with RSI(14) near 40.

Intraday downtrend, momentum fading · RSI 42 · price 0.70208

Lower highs through Asia, compressing above swing low.

The weekend gap filled at the 0.7034 Asian high, then the Asia session slid on China PMI weakness and Middle East risk-off, with lower highs at 0.70335 and 0.70251. The bounce off the 0.70177 swing low stalled near 50% of the Asia drop, and price is coiling around 0.7021 with RSI(14) near 42 and ATR(14) about 3 pips ahead of London open.

Lower highs since 0.70340 Asian high, lows holding above 0.7013.

Asia opened on a weekend gap lower at 0.7026, and an early false break of Friday's 0.70135 low to the 0.70132 Asian low reversed fast. Since then the session has printed lower highs off the 0.70340 Asian high, with the latest bounce stalling at the 0.70251 lower high near the 50% retrace of the 02:00 drop. Soft China PMIs and Middle East risk-off are weighing on AUD; RSI(14) is near 40 and price sits below EMA20/50, about 4 pips above the 0.70177 swing low.

Gap-down open, sweep of Friday low rejected, then lower-high/lower-low chain.

The week opened with a gap below the 0.7032 Friday close. An early sweep of Friday's low to the 0.7013 sweep low was rejected, but since the 0.7034 Asian high price has stepped lower along a descending trendline as soft China PMIs and haven USD demand weigh on AUD. Late in Asia, the 0.7025 lower high capped a bounce just shy of the 50% fib, with price sitting above the 0.7018 swing low and RSI(14) near 39.

Intraday down, lower highs · RSI 46 · price 0.70226

Lower-high chain inside Asian range, shallow bounce.

Asia opened with a gap down from Friday's 0.7032 close on soft China PMIs and Middle East risk-off. Demand absorbed the 0.7013 opening low, but lower highs from the 0.7034 Asian high have since carried price to a 0.7018 swing low. The bounce is stalling at the 0.7025 swing high near the 38.2% retrace, with price under both EMAs early in the Asia session.

Weekend gap lower, Asian range broken to the downside, bounce off session low.

AUD gapped lower at the weekend open and swept Friday's 0.7013 low before snapping back. The 0.7027–0.7034 Asian range, capped at the asia high, then broke lower from 02:00 UTC on soft China PMIs and haven USD demand. Late Asia has bounced off the 0.7018 session low but sits under the 0.7024 lower high (38.2% fib) and EMA20, with the gap fill at 0.7032 still open.

Lower highs and lower lows inside the Asian range, pressing the lower third.

Asia opened with a 6-pip gap down from Friday's 0.7032 close. An early sweep of the 0.7013 asia low, just under Friday's low, snapped back to the 0.7034 asia high, but price has since printed lower highs back to 0.7018, through the 61.8% of that asia swing, as risk-off and weak China PMIs weigh on AUD ahead of Tuesday's RBA.

Lower highs since 02:00 UTC, pressing session low.

AUD/USD gapped ~6 pips lower at the weekly open and swept the 0.7013 Friday low before snapping back to the 0.7034 Asian high. Since then the intraday downtrend has printed lower highs back to the 0.7019 session low under risk-off and a firm USD.

AUDUSD gapped lower at the Monday open. An early spike to the 0.7013 session low swept Friday's 0.70135 low and snapped back into a 0.7027–0.7034 Asian range.

  • A return below the 0.7013 friday low negates the sweep-and-reverse read
  • China RatingDog Manufacturing PMI during the Asia session could shift this read
  • US ISM Manufacturing at 15:00 UTC, with the RBA decision Tuesday 03:30 UTC as the larger risk

Range-bound, rebounding off the lows · RSI 51 · price 0.70328

Weekend gap filled, price back at Friday close inside Friday's 0.70135–0.70427 range.

Monday opened about 6 pips below Friday's 0.70321 close. Iran-driven risk-off and the marginal AU PMI miss pushed price to a Monday low of 0.70132, matching Friday's 0.70135 low and forming a double bottom. The rebound filled the gap, and price now sits on the Friday close just under the early Asia high at 0.70340, around the 61.8% retrace of the Friday high-low move.

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.70371 Fri NY high puts the 0.70427 Fri high back in play

  • China RatingDog Manufacturing PMI later this Asia session could shift risk tone and AUD
  • RBA decision Tue 03:30 UTC (hike ~80% priced) and US ISM Mon 15:00 UTC could materially reset this range
