The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.
AUD/USD Analysis
This pair has taken a more bearish turn, in line with yesterday’s general strengthening of the U.S. Dollar. There is new resistance just above the 0.8000 level, and the price has become established within a short-to-medium term bearish wedge. There will probably be better opportunities in other Forex currency pairs for the time being.
There is nothing due today concerning the AUD. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of CPI and Unemployment Claims data at 1:30pm London time.
