AUD/USD Forex Signal - 4 December 2017

By Adam Lemon

Adam Lemon began his role at DailyForex in 2013 when he was brought in as an in-house Chief Analyst. Adam trades Forex, stocks and other instruments in his own account. Adam believes that it is very possible for retail traders/investors to secure a positive return over time provided they limit their risks, follow trends, and persevere through short-term losing streaks – provided only reputable brokerages are used. He has previously worked within financial markets over a 12-year period, including 6 years with Merrill Lynch.

Last Thursday’s signals produced a possible short trade following the bearish engulfing candle rejection of the resistance level identified at 0.7594, but it wouldn’t have given a great reward to risk as there was then a very successful bullish trade from the bullish inside candle bouncing from the support level identified at 0.7556! Two winning trades in a single day.

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

Support and resistance levels are being respected, which is not surprising as there is no real directional bias to get hold of in this pair. However, the choppy action has cleared a space between about 0.7640 and 0.7560 where the price can roam easily. There is important Australian data due later, so it is probably wise to stand aside in the meantime, in case that gives the price a strong direction.

AUDUSD

There is nothing due today concerning the USD. Regarding the AUD, there will be a release of Current Account and Retail Sales data at 12:30am London time, followed by the RBA Rate Statement and Cash Rate at 3:30am.
