Sideways after London breakout, early Asia rotating mid-range · RSI 50 · price 0.70268

0.7019–0.7035 range since London; flat highs capping, NY lows held twice.

London broke above the prior Asian range and has held AUDUSD in a 0.7019–0.7035 range since. The range high near the monthly top has been rejected repeatedly, and two NY flushes to the range low, at the 61.8% fib of the rally, were bought back. Early Asia is lifting off 0.7020 toward the 0.7028 session high, with RSI(14) near 50 and price hugging EMA20/50; hawkish RBA repricing keeps AUD underpinned but has not cleared the cap.

Support: 0.7019, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7028, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 0.7035 range high clears the monthly-high cap and ends the range read
  • Failure to hold 0.7019 range low breaks the 61.8% fib floor and exposes the asian low at 0.7009
  • Session high at 0.7028 is the first test for the Asia recovery
  • US jobless claims Thu 12:30 UTC and AU flash PMIs Thu 22:00 UTC are the next scheduled risks to the range

23:32 UTC

Sideways, mid-range after London rally · RSI 43 · price 0.7025

0.7019–0.7035 range since London; range top rejected three times.

The London rally off the 0.7009 asian low stalled at the 0.7035 range top, which rejected price three times through NY. Two NY dips held the 0.7019 range low near the 61.8% fib, with RBA hike repricing keeping AUD underpinned. Early Asia is drifting mid-range at 0.7025, capped by the 0.7028 early high, with EMAs flat overhead.

Support: 0.7019, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7028, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7035 range top breaks the three-touch cap and the 0.7030 monthly high
  • Close above the 0.7028 early high puts the range top back in play
  • Failure to hold the 0.7019 range low and 61.8% fib exposes the 0.7009 asian low and the 0.70 handle
  • Iran or AI-risk headlines during Asia hours could hit high-beta AUD

23:17 UTC

Range after rally, momentum fading · RSI 41 · price 0.70225

Lower highs below 0.7036, lows holding 0.7018-0.7020.

London took AUD through the 0.7030 monthly high to a 0.7036 day high on the hawkish RBA repricing. Repeated rejection there through NY has left lower highs inside a 0.7018–0.7036 range. Early Asia is pinned between the 0.7028 Asia high and the 0.7020 Asia low, just above the 0.7018 NY low. Price sits at the 50% fib of the 0.7009–0.7036 leg, with RSI(14) near 41 and price below both EMAs.

Support: 0.70195, 0.70181, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.70283, 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • A close below the 0.7018 NY low and the 0.7020 Asia low confirms a range break, opening the 0.7009 prior low
  • Recovery above the 0.7028 Asia high reopens the 0.7036 day high and challenges the lower-high sequence
  • No AU/US data in the next 8h; US jobless claims Thu 12:30 UTC is the next scheduled USD input

23:03 UTC

Range after London rally, early Asia drifting lower · RSI 37 · price 0.70225

0.7018–0.7036 range; lower highs since the 18:30 UTC rejection.

The London rally from the 0.7009 Asian low ran into the 0.7035 range top, near the monthly high, where it was rejected again in NY and late in the day. The RBA-hike bid stalled there, while dips to the 0.7018 range low held twice. Price has set lower highs into the new Asia session and sits at 0.7022, the 50% of the London leg, below EMA20/50 with RSI(14) at 37.

Support: 0.70185, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.7018 range low, which coincides with the 61.8% fib, confirms a breakdown toward the 0.7009 Asian low
  • Close above the 0.7029 lower high breaks the trendline and reopens the 0.7035 range top
  • US Initial Jobless Claims at 12:30 UTC, then AU flash PMIs at 22:00 UTC, could shift the range read

22:47 UTC

Sideways after London push, early Asia drifting lower · RSI 38 · price 0.7022

Range 0.7018–0.7035 since London, lower highs in early Asia.

London cleared the asian high at 0.7029 on RBA hike repricing and tagged 0.7035, but the range top has capped five tests since. NY dips and the post-rollover dip held the 0.7018 range low. Early Asia is printing lower highs from 0.7034, with price sitting at the 50% retrace of the Asia-London leg and RSI(14) near 38.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7005

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 0.7018 range low, the 61.8% of the Asia-London leg, breaks the range and exposes the 0.7005 asian low
  • Break of the lower-highs line and a close back above the 0.7029 asian high puts the 0.7035 range top back in play
  • Acceptance above the 0.7035 range top would mark a fresh monthly high
  • US jobless claims (Thu 12:30 UTC) and AU flash PMIs (Thu 22:00 UTC) could materially shift this read

22:32 UTC

Range, drifting lower within it · RSI 44 · price 0.70224

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; lower highs after rollover.

Hawkish RBA repricing carried London through the 0.7029 Asian high to a 0.7036 day high. NY was capped twice near 0.7034, and price has printed lower highs since rollover, with a 0.7028 minor high. Price sits at 0.7022, just above a 0.7018 range floor that has held three times since NY open, with RSI(14) near 44 and ATR around 3.6 pips.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7005

Resistance: 0.7028, 0.7036

  • Close above the 0.7028 minor high breaks the lower-highs line and reopens the 0.7036 day high
  • Asia session liquidity and any US-Iran headlines could shift this read; AU flash PMIs (Oct 22 22:00 UTC) are the next scheduled AUD risk

22:17 UTC

Sideways after London rally, momentum flat · RSI 48 · price 0.70242

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; repeated rejection at range top.

London broke the 0.7029 Asian high on hawkish RBA repricing, but the 0.7035 range top (UOB's flagged target) rejected four tests through NY hours, while the range low at 0.7018–0.7020 absorbed three dips, holding near the 50–61.8% retrace of the London leg. Early Asia trades mid-range at 0.7024 below both EMAs, RSI(14) ~48, ATR ~4 pips.

Support: 0.7019, 0.70053

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.70356

22:03 UTC

Sideways after London rally, momentum flat · RSI 45 · price 0.70267

Range 0.7019–0.7035, early Asia session mid-range.

London extended the hawkish-RBA rally to the 0.7035 range high, which coincides with the digest's UOB target. That level has rejected price four times since. Dips to the 0.7019 range low, which aligns with the 61.8% of the London leg fib, held through NY and again into the Asia open, leaving price mid-range at 0.7027 under a flat EMA20/50.

Support: 0.7019, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7031, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7035 range high breaks the four-touch rejection and the day's cap.
  • Minor high at 0.7031 capped the late-NY rebound. A close through it puts the range high back in play.
  • Loss of the 0.7019 range low (61.8% London leg fib) opens the 0.7000 psych handle.
  • AU flash PMIs (Oct 22, 22:00 UTC) are the next AUD catalyst for this range.

21:47 UTC

Intraday range, drifting lower since NY close · RSI 36 · price 0.70213

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; price back near the range base.

London set the day high at 0.7036, and NY was capped twice near 0.7034 while dips held the 0.7018 NY low. Price has slipped after the rollover to sit on the 50% of the London leg fib (0.7022), back below the 0.7029 Asia high, even as RBA hike repricing keeps AUD above 0.70.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.7036

What it said to watch

  • Close below the 0.7018 NY low breaks the range base and the 61.8% of the London leg fib, exposing the 0.7000 round number
  • Reclaim of the 0.7029 Asia high returns price to mid-range; the 0.7036 day high remains the cap
  • AU flash PMIs (Oct 22, 22:00 UTC) are the next scheduled AUD risk, beyond the coming Asia session

21:32 UTC

Sideways after London push to one-month high · RSI 43 · price 0.70262

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; flat top, double low.

The Asia-to-London leg off 0.7000 on hawkish RBA repricing topped at the 0.7035 range high, and that level has rejected four times since, including the 18:30 UTC probe. NY twice set a range low near 0.7018 and recovered quickly both times. Price is drifting at 0.7026 after the rollover gap, just under EMA20 and EMA50, in a thin early Asia session.

Support: 0.70183, 0.70092, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7035 range high breaks the London-NY cap.
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 range low opens the asian low at 0.7009 and the 0.7000 psych handle.
  • US Initial Jobless Claims (Thu 12:30 UTC) could shift the read if the range is still intact into the NY session.

21:17 UTC

Flat range after London leg higher · RSI 44 · price 0.70283

0.7018–0.7036 range since London, repeated caps at the top.

London extended the Asian rally from the 0.7009 swing low to 0.7036 on the hawkish RBA repricing, but every push since has met rejection at the 0.7034–0.7036 range top while two NY flushes found buyers at the 0.7018 ny low. Price is mid-range at 0.7028 into the daily rollover, with ATR compressed near 4 pips and RSI(14) neutral at 44.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7035 range top breaks the four-touch cap and invalidates the range read
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 ny low (near the 61.8% fib) exposes the 0.7009 swing low
  • Thin rollover and Asia session liquidity until AU flash PMIs on Oct 22 22:00 UTC

21:05 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled, ranging · RSI 48 · price 0.70278

Range 0.7018–0.7036 above the broken Asian range, lower highs at the top.

London broke the 0.6997–0.7029 Asian range higher on hawkish RBA repricing and printed a session high at 0.7036. Price has since been confined between 0.7018 and the 0.7035 range top. Demand held the 0.7018 range low twice, including the late-NY flush, and highs have stalled at 0.7034. Price is mid-range at the old Asian high, the leg is holding above the 38.2% of the Asia-London leg fib, RSI(14) is neutral at 48 and EMAs are flat.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7035 range top ends the range read and extends the London breakout
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 range low exposes the 0.7000 round number and the Asian range
  • Thin Asia session ahead; Meta earnings tonight (AI sentiment) and US jobless claims Thu 12:30 UTC could shift the USD leg

Range 0.7018–0.7035 since London; Asian high 0.7029 now the pivot.

London cleared the 0.7029 Asian high on the hawkish-RBA / soft-USD tone, but the 0.7035 range high has capped five tests since. The range low at 0.7018 held twice, at 14:00 and 19:00 UTC, near the 61.8% of the Asia-London leg fib. Late NY trades flat on EMA20 at the Asian high, with RSI(14) neutral near 48.

  • Holding the 0.7032 rebound high as a cap keeps price boxed under the range high

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; equal lows at 0.7018, capped at 0.7035.

London cleared the Asian high at 0.7029 and ran to the 0.7036 london high, near UOB's 0.7035 target, where the hawkish-RBA leg met repeated rejection. NY twice dipped to the 0.7018 ny low and recovered both times. Late NY, price sits at 0.7028 mid-range, near the 38.2% of the ny swing fib, with RSI(14) 46 and flat EMAs.

What it said to watch

  • Close above the 0.7036 london high breaks the session range to the upside

20:17 UTC

Sideways after London breakout, momentum neutral · RSI 50 · price 0.70299

Range 0.7018–0.7036 since London; lower highs at the top, twin lows at the base.

London broke the Asian range high near 0.7029 and was rejected twice at the 0.7036 session high, which lines up with the 0.7035 UOB target in focus after the hawkish RBA repricing. NY has since ranged 0.7018–0.7036. The 0.7018 NY low held twice near the 61.8% fib of the Asia-London leg. Late NY trades mid-range with RSI(14) flat near 50.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7036

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7036 session high breaks the range and clears the 0.7035 target zone
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 ny low exposes the 0.7009 asian low and the 0.7000 psych level
  • Third test of the session high failing again would extend the lower-high sequence at the range top

20:02 UTC

Intraday uptrend stalled into a range · RSI 49 · price 0.70312

0.7018–0.7035 range since London; slightly lower highs, twin lows at floor.

London broke above the Asian high at 0.7029, extending the hawkish-RBA rally. Since then AUD/USD has ranged 0.7018–0.7035: the range top capped three tests, and buyers stepped in twice at the range floor in NY, near the 61.8% retracement of the Asia-London leg. The late-NY drop to 0.70185 was fully reclaimed, and price is back above the Asian high. RSI(14) is neutral near 49.

  • Loss of the 0.7029 Asian high puts the 0.7018 range floor back in play
  • Failure at the 0.7018 range floor exposes the 0.7000 psych level, the line the digest ties to the breakout

0.7018–0.7035 range since London morning; equal highs at range top, lows defended twice.

London broke the Asian high at 0.7029 on hawkish RBA repricing, and price has held a 0.7018–0.7035 range through NY since then, with the range top rejecting four times. The late-NY drop to 0.7018, near the 61.8% of the London leg, reversed within two bars, and price is back above the Asian high with RSI(14) mid-50s.

Support: 0.7029, 0.7018, 0.7005

Resistance: 0.7035

What it said to watch

0.7018–0.7036 range since London; repeated tops at 0.7035, second hold at the range low.

A 10-pip drop at 18:45 UTC knocked AUDUSD off the 0.7030–0.7034 late shelf to the 0.7018 range low, which held for a second time today. Price now sits near the 50% retracement of the 0.7009–0.7036 rally fib. Supply has capped the 0.7035 range top, UOB's flagged target, repeatedly since London despite the hawkish RBA repricing.

Intraday uptrend stalled, rolling into a range · RSI 45 · price 0.70232

Range 0.7018–0.7035 after London broke the Asian high; repeated session-high rejection.

Hawkish RBA repricing carried London through the 0.7029 Asian high to a 0.7035 session high. That level has capped four tests through NY. A 10-pip flush late in NY hours put price back on the 50% fib of the London leg at 0.7022, below both EMAs, with the 0.7018 NY low just underneath.

Support: 0.70224, 0.70181, 0.70092

Higher lows into flat 0.7035 cap.

London broke the asian high at 0.7029 and set a session high at 0.70356, at UOB's 0.7035 target, as hawkish RBA repricing kept AUD bid. The early-NY drop to the 0.7018 ny low held between the 50% and 61.8% fib of the Asian-London leg. Higher lows since then have pushed price back into the 0.7034-0.7036 cap, which has now been tested four times late in the NY session.

Support: 0.7029, 0.70181, 0.70053

Intraday uptrend, stalling below the session high · RSI 54 · price 0.70305

Asian range broken higher; late-NY consolidation under a double cap.

London broke the 0.6997–0.7029 Asian range on the hawkish RBA repricing but was rejected twice at the 0.7036 London high. The NY open dip found demand at the 0.7018 NY low, near the 50% fib of the day's upleg, and a 0.7023 higher low has since lifted price back into a tight late-NY range between the 0.7029 Asian high and the 0.7034 NY high.

  • A close back below the 0.7029 Asian high returns price to the middle of the NY range
  • Loss of the 0.7023 higher low reopens the 0.7018 NY low and the 50% fib

Intraday uptrend, holding near session high · RSI 61 · price 0.70327

0.7018–0.7036 range since London, higher lows in NY.

London broke the asian high at 0.7029 and stalled twice at the 0.7036 session high, near UOB's 0.7035 target, as hawkish RBA repricing kept AUD firm. The NY dip to the 0.7018 ny low held between the 50% and 61.8% fib of the Asia-London leg. A run of higher lows since then has lifted price back to 0.7033 in late NY, with RSI(14) at 61.

Support: 0.7029, 0.70235, 0.70181

Resistance: 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7036 session high breaks the London-NY cap
  • Loss of the 0.7029 asian high puts the 0.7024 higher low and rising higher-lows line in focus
  • Break below the 0.7018 ny low ends the higher-low sequence

Higher lows compressing under 0.7035 cap.

AUD/USD broke the Asian range high at 0.7029 in early London on the hawkish RBA repricing, but the 0.7035 session high capped three tests through London and the NY open. The NY-open drop to the 0.7018 NY low was bought back. A 0.7023 pullback low and a 0.7028 higher low now compress price under the cap late in NY hours, with RSI(14) near 61.

Support: 0.7028, 0.7023, 0.7018

Resistance: 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 0.7035 session high breaks the cap that has held since London
  • Break of the rising trendline and the 0.7028 higher low shifts price back into the afternoon range

London broke above the 0.7005–0.7029 Asian range and set a 0.7036 session high, which capped price twice into the NY open before a pullback to the 0.7018 NY low. After London close, NY higher lows at 0.7018 and 0.7023 have lifted price back to 0.7031, with hawkish RBA repricing still underpinning AUD. RSI(14) sits near 58 and ATR(14) is about 4 pips.

Resistance: 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • An M15 close above the 0.7036 session high clears the double cap and the 0.7035 area flagged in the AUD digest
  • A break of the 0.7023 higher low snaps the NY higher-lows line; a move under the 0.7018 NY low turns it into a lower low
  • The 0.7000 psych level is the floor of the breakout read; losing it reopens the old range
  • Meta earnings tonight could shift the USD and risk tone into the Asia session

0.7018–0.7036 range; higher lows off NY low.

London broke the asian high at 0.7029 on the hawkish RBA repricing and soft USD, then stalled twice at the 0.7036 session high. Demand stepped in at the 0.7018 NY low after the NY-open dip, and higher lows since then have lifted price back to 0.7030, with a lower high at 0.7034 at 16:30 UTC.

London broke the Asian range high at 0.7029 on hawkish RBA repricing and capped at the 0.7036 session high. NY dipped to the 0.7018 NY low, near the 61.8% of the London leg, then printed a higher low at 0.7023. Late in the NY session price is testing the session high, also UOB's 0.7035 target, for a third time with RSI(14) neutral at 56.

Intraday uptrend stalled, pulling back · RSI 44 · price 0.70246

Triple top at 0.7035, neckline lost, lower highs forming.

The AUD rally on hawkish RBA repricing stalled at the 0.7035 session high, tapped three times through London. The NY open then broke the 0.7030 neckline and fell to the 0.7018 NY low, near the 61.8% fib of the asia low-to-high leg. The late-NY bounce was rejected at the neckline and lower highs are forming. RSI(14) is near 44, with price under EMA20 and just above EMA50.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7030, 0.7035

Intraday uptrend stalling, NY pullback · RSI 44 · price 0.70245

Double top at 0.7036, lower highs in NY, 0.7018–0.7030 range.

London extended the RBA-repricing rally through the 0.7030 monthly high to a 0.7036 london high. Two tests there failed, and the first hour of NY dropped price to a 0.7018 ny low, close to the fib 61.8% retrace of the 0.7009–0.7036 leg. The NY rebound stalled at a lower high near 0.7030, so price now sits at 0.7025, just under ema20 and on ema50, with RSI(14) near 44.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7030, 0.7036

Uptrend stalled, intraday pullback · RSI 49 · price 0.70256

Rejection from 0.7035 session high, lower high near 0.7030.

Hawkish RBA repricing and a soft USD carried the Asia-London leg from the 0.7009 swing low through the 0.7029 Asian high. London then tagged the 0.7035 session high three times near the monthly high before the NY open rejection to the 0.7018 NY low, just beyond the 61.8% fib. The bounce stalled at a lower high near 0.7030 mid-NY session, and price now sits on the 38.2% with RSI(14) neutral at 49.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7030, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 0.7030 lower high and 0.7035 session high invalidates the rejection read
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 NY low exposes the 0.7009 swing low
  • Meta earnings after the US close could hit the USD and shift this read late in the NY session

Double top at 0.7035 broke its 0.7030 neckline, lower high at 0.7028.

London extended the Asian advance to 0.7035, the monthly-high area. A double top there gave way in the first hour of NY, and price dropped to the 0.7018 NY low, just under the 61.8% retrace of the Asia-low leg. The bounce stalled at the 0.7028 bounce high, leaving price mid-NY session below EMA20 with RSI(14) near 42 despite the soft-USD backdrop in the digest.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7028, 0.7035

  • A break below the 0.7018 NY low exposes the 0.7009 asian low and the 0.7000 psych level
  • An M15 close back above the 0.7028 bounce high puts the 0.7035 double top back in play
  • A close above 0.7035 invalidates the double top read

Double top at 0.7036; bounce retesting Asian high from below.

London cleared the 0.7029 asian high and stalled twice at the 0.7036 session high, a double top that the NY open unwound to the 0.7018 NY low. That low sits near the 61.8% fib of the London leg. The bounce, helped by a soft USD that keeps AUD near its monthly high, is now retesting 0.7029 from below, with RSI(14) neutral at 52 and price pinned at EMA20.

Support: 0.70181, 0.7009, 0.7000

Intraday uptrend stalled, pulling back · RSI 38 · price 0.70245

Double top at 0.70356, neckline broken, price back inside Asian range.

London lifted AUD/USD through the 0.7029 Asian high to a double top at 0.70356 as hawkish RBA repricing and a soft USD after weak US housing data pushed the pair to monthly highs. The 0.7030 neckline gave way into the NY open and price slid to a 0.70181 ny low, just under the 61.8% of the 0.7009–0.7036 London leg fib. Price is now back near 0.7024, inside the Asian range and sitting on the EMA50 with RSI(14) near 38.

  • Failure to hold the 0.70181 ny low exposes the 0.7009 asian low and the 0.7000 psych level

Intraday uptrend reversed, lower high in NY · RSI 37 · price 0.70235

Double top at 0.7035, neckline 0.7030 broken, bounce off NY low.

London extended the Asia climb from the 0.7009 Asia low to a monthly high at 0.7035 on hawkish RBA repricing. A double top there broke the 0.7030 neckline in the first hour of NY. The drop found the NY low at 0.7018, just under the 61.8% fib, and price is now holding the 50% retracement near 0.7023 below the 0.7029 Asian high.

Support: 0.7018, 0.7009

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.7035

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 0.7029 Asian high would neutralise the double top break
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 NY low exposes the 0.7009 Asia low and full retracement of the London leg

Double top at 0.7036, price back below the asian high.

London cleared the 0.7029 asian high on RBA hike repricing and set a monthly high. A double top at 0.7036 then gave way into the NY open, and price slid back below the asian high. The 0.7018 ny low sits near the 61.8% fib of the 0.7009 swing low to high leg, with RSI(14) near 31.

Support: 0.70181, 0.70092, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7029, 0.70356

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 0.7029 asian high negates the double top rejection
  • Failure to hold the 0.7018 ny low and 61.8% fib exposes the 0.7009 swing low, then the 0.7000 round number
  • Calendar is clear for the next 8h; a USD headline from the Meta earnings / AI-sentiment track or oil could still move the pair

Intraday uptrend stalling, pullback under way · RSI 38 · price 0.70212

Triple top at 0.7035, London breakout back below Asian high.

Hawkish RBA repricing carried London through the 0.7029 Asian high to a triple top at 0.7035, the monthly high. A rejection into the NY open has since pulled price back below the 0.7023 London base to the 50% retrace near 0.7022, which leaves the Asian-high break looking like a false break. RSI(14) sits near 38 and ATR is about 3.6 pips. The London low at 0.7017 is the next support below.

Support: 0.7017, 0.7009, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7023, 0.7029, 0.7035

  • A rally that stalls at the 0.7023 London base confirms it has flipped to resistance

Double top at 0.7036, range floor 0.7030 broken at NY open.

London pushed the rally to a fresh monthly high at 0.7036 on hawkish RBA repricing, but a second test of that level formed a double top. The NY open then broke the 0.7030 range floor, and price is now at the 0.7022 NY low. That level is the 50% retrace of the 0.7009 swing low to 0.7036 leg, with price under EMA20 and just below EMA50.

Support: 0.70219, 0.7017, 0.70092

HH/HL chain from 0.7009; small double top at 0.7035, neckline 0.7030 lost at NY open.

London took out the 0.7029 Asian high and printed a 0.7035 session high, tested twice, as hawkish RBA repricing kept AUD firm. The NY open pushed price back below the 0.7030 neckline, which also marks the Asian high, leaving a small double top. Next support is 0.7023, the fib 50% of the London leg.

  • M15 close back above the 0.7035 session high invalidates the double top read

Asian high break, now retesting 0.7029.

London broke the Asian high at 0.7029 and set a session high at 0.70356, carried by AUD strength after Hauser's hawkish inflation comments. Three tests of 0.7035 have failed to extend, and the first hour of NY dropped price back to the 0.7029 breakout area. Price is now just under EMA20, RSI(14) neutral at 56.

Uptrend, grinding higher · RSI 67 · price 0.7030

Higher lows from 0.7010, pressing session high.

AUDUSD is printing a marginal new session high at 0.7030 late in the London session. It held a tight 0.7023–0.7028 shelf above the Asian high since the open, and rising support from the 0.7010 area is intact. The leg tracks hawkish RBA commentary and a softer USD, and price now sits inside the 0.7015–0.7035 resistance band with RSI(14) at 67, short of extreme.

Support: 0.70228, 0.70092, 0.7000

  • Break of the 0.7023 london low and rising support ends the higher-low sequence and exposes the 0.7009 asia low
  • Loss of the 0.7000 round number would unwind the Asian-session advance
  • Failure to hold above the 0.7030 session high would turn this into a false break of the London range
  • NY open is 1-2h out with no scheduled AU/US data in the next 8h; US–Iran and oil headlines are the main swing risk

Uptrend, compressing below highs · RSI 64 · price 0.70261

Higher low at 0.7009, tight London range under Asian high.

Mid-London, price is holding a tight 0.7023–0.7028 range just under the Asian high at 0.7029, the monthly-high area. That follows a higher low at 0.7009 during Asia and rising support from that pivot. Hawkish RBA talk and a softer USD underpin the four-day rally, while RSI(14) near 64 and ATR around 3 pips point to compression rather than exhaustion.

Asia lifted AUDUSD through yesterday's 0.7017 prior high to an Asian high at 0.7029 on hawkish RBA commentary and a softer USD. London rallied from the 0.7009 swing low but stalled at 0.7028. Price has since slipped below the London trendline and is pressing the 0.7023 session low, sitting on EMA20 with RSI(14) near 57 and ATR at only 3 pips.

Hawkish RBA commentary and a softer USD carried AUD through 0.70 in Asia, and London lifted price off the 0.7009 swing low to 0.7028. Price is now compressed in a 5-pip range just under the 0.7029 Asian high, inside the 0.7015–0.7035 resistance band, with RSI(14) near 61 and ATR(14) about 3 pips.

  • Break of the 0.7023 range low, together with a loss of the rising trendline, exposes the 0.7009 swing low
  • A pullback deeper than 50% of the 0.7009–0.7028 leg (about 0.7019) would weaken the higher-low sequence
  • A close back below the 0.7000 round number would negate the Asia breakout

The prior high at 0.7017 gave way in Asia on the hawkish RBA and soft-USD backdrop, and the climb from the 0.7009 swing low has carried London back to the 0.7029 Asian high, where price has stalled. Price is boxed above the 0.7023 London low with RSI(14) near 72, and the rising lows trendline from 0.7005 still holds.

That move takes it through the 78.6% of the Asian leg fib, with lower highs printing and RSI(14) near 39. The Asian low at 0.7005 and 0.7000 psych sit just below, late in the Asia session.

Resistance: 0.7017, 0.7029

What it said to watch

  • M15 close back above the 0.7017 prior high (in line with UOB's 0.7015 cap) negates the false break
  • Failure to hold the 0.7005 asian low exposes 0.7000 psych and the 0.6995 ny low that held through NY hours yesterday
  • London open in ~2h could reset the session range; US-Iran headlines remain a continuous USD swing factor

Asia breakout above 0.7017 faded, higher low at 0.7005 intact.

Asia session cleared yesterday's NY prior high at 0.7017 and printed a 0.7029 session high, extending the AUD bid on hawkish RBA inflation talk and a softer USD. The rejection there has unwound about 78.6% of the move from the 0.7005 swing low, with price back under 0.7017 and sitting on the 0.7010 pullback low into late Asia. RSI(14) is near 43 and ATR(14) about 3.7 pips.

The Asia session ran through Tuesday's 0.7017 prior high to a 0.7029 session high, then gave it back. Price has slipped under the prior high and the pullback line, sitting at the 0.7010 pullback low near the 61.8% of the Asia rally fib. AUD support from hawkish RBA talk is running into the 0.7015 cap flagged in the market digest, while the higher-low chain from 0.6997 and the 0.7005 swing low is still intact.

  • M15 close below the 0.7005 swing low breaks the higher-low chain and exposes 0.7000 psych

Lower highs off 0.7029, sitting on 61.8% fib.

The Asia session pushed through the 0.7017 prior high, set by yesterday's NY spike, to a 0.7029 session high, but could not hold it. Price has since stair-stepped lower to the 61.8% fib of the 0.7005–0.7029 leg near 0.7014, with RSI(14) back at 50 and price flat to EMA20. Hawkish RBA rhetoric and a softer USD on Iran-deal hopes keep the pair above 0.7000, with the swing low at 0.7011 and the Asian low at 0.7005 framing the downside.

Support: 0.7011, 0.7005, 0.7000

Resistance: 0.7017, 0.7029

  • M15 close back above the 0.7017 prior high would negate the failed-break read and put the 0.7029 session high back in focus
  • Failure to hold the 0.7011 swing low exposes the 0.7005 Asian low and the 0.7000 round number

Asia break above NY high, now retesting it.

The Asia session cleared yesterday's NY spike high at 0.7017 and ran to a session high of 0.7029, helped by hawkish RBA tone and a softer USD. It has since faded back to 0.7015, retesting the prior high between the 38.2% and 50% retracement of the overnight leg, with a pullback low at 0.7013. RSI(14) is neutral near 51 and ATR is about 4 pips ahead of the London open.

  • A close back above the 0.7017 prior high would restore the breakout; a move through the 0.7029 session high would extend the leg
  • Failure below the 0.7013 pullback low exposes the 0.7005 swing low and the 0.7000 round number
  • Losing the 0.7000 round number unwinds the overnight move back into the prior range

The Asia session extended the USD pullback on US-Iran deal hopes, clearing yesterday's NY prior high at 0.7017 and reaching 0.7029. The 0.7029 asia high met a sharp 7-pip rejection, and price is back retesting 0.7017 near the 50% retracement of the Asia leg off the 0.7005 swing low.

RSI(14) near 74 is hot but not stretched; the ny high at 0.70169 also sits at the 38.2% fib of the rollover-to-high leg.
