The Australian Dollar to US Dollar (AUD/USD) pair is making efforts to establish a robust green candle, maintaining its position above the crucial descending trendline from February 2, 2023. This marks a considerable rally from the October 2023 low of 0.6269, bringing AUD/USD close to its four-month peak. Investor focus is currently directed at momentum indicators, seeking insights into the continuation of the ongoing upward movement.
Examining the indicators in detail, the Average Directional Movement Index (ADX) is above the 25-threshold, indicating a robust bullish trend. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers comfortably above its 50-midpoint, reaching a four-month high. However, it shows signs of hesitancy in achieving a higher high. Notably, the stochastic oscillator resides at the upper end of its overbought region, potentially signaling an early reversal.
Bulls eyeing further gains might aim for the July 14, 2022 low at 0.6681. Beyond that, the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the downtrend from April 5, 2022, to October 13, 2022, and the November 15, 2022 high at 0.6739 and 0.6797, respectively, could pose challenges. Success at these levels may open the path to the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at 0.6915.
Conversely, bears aiming to halt the current bullish momentum could strive to push AUD/USD below the descending trendline from February 2, 2023, and the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) at 0.6576. A breach of this level may prompt a test of the support zone between the rectangle’s lower boundary and the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement, ranging from 0.6521 to 0.6561. A successful break here could lead to a downward move towards the 0.6421-0.6471 range.
Traders are closely monitoring these key levels as they anticipate potential shifts in the AUD/USD pair’s trajectory, with momentum indicators offering crucial insights into the market’s sentiment.
