AUD/USD Technical Analysis
The technical analysis of the AUDUSD price chart on 4-hour timeframe shows AUDUSD,H4 is rebounding toward the 200-period moving average MA(200) after hitting forty-nine month low two days ago. We believe bullish movement will continue after the price breaches above the upper bound of the Donchian channel at 0.62067. A level above this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 0.61558. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved to the next fractal low indicator, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level without reaching the order, we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.
Fundamental Analysis of Forex - AUD/USD
Australia’s consumer sentiment improved somewhat in January. Will the AUDUSD price rebound continue?
Australia’s consumer confidence slipped a little further in January: the Westpac Banking Corporation reported the Westpac Consumer Sentiment Index declined 0.7% to 92.1 in January after 2% fall in December. Pessimists outweighed optimists given a reading of 100 is the dividing line. The Westpac-Melbourne Institute notes that some survey components suggest that consumers expect gradual improvement moving forward as consumer sentiment remains less negative compared to a year ago. At the same time as the forward-looking indexes were either flat or recorded slight increases, the two sub-indexes tracking current conditions fell. Improvement in Australian consumer confidence is bullish for Australian dollar and AUDUSD currency pair.

Currency Pair AUDUSD | Forex | Major
The Australian dollar (AUD, “Aussie”) is the 5th most traded currency in the world. The issuer is the Reserve Bank of Australia.
- Is actively applied in currency exchange and trading operations, as Australia supports high interest rates, as a rule.
- Is affected by trading relations with Japan, China and the United States
- Refers to "commodity" currencies, as the economy of Australia highly depends on commodity export (particularly on gold and other metals mining)
