AUD/USD - Reaching for New Long-Term Highs

comments 0

Substantial dollar-weakening to begin the week has just approached the 14-month high for AUD/USD, a daily chart of which is shown. This occurs after price action broke out cleanly above a short-term downtrend resistance line extending from that high. AUD/USD, much like EUR/USD, continues to operate within the context of a long-term uptrend extending from March. Also much like EUR/USD, if the 14-month high on AUD/USD (around 0.9325) is broken strongly to the upside, an uptrend continuation will have been confirmed.
