AUD/USD Analysis
The pair rose yesterday with the general fall in the USD but formed a double top at 0.7721 before falling during the Asian session with some momentum. The USD is now gaining back some of the ground lost yesterday. I expect that this double top will now be resistive. We have lost the level at 0.7667. Below, there remains key support at 0.7550 which is very close to the psychologically crucial 0.7500: this could be an area at which we see a long-term turn.
There are no high-impact events scheduled today for the USD. The Governor of the RBA will be speaking late in the day in Australia.
