AUD/USD Technical Analysis: 15-min chart aligned for recovery rally ahead of the China data dump

  • The AUD/USD has charted a large bullish relative strength index (RSI) divergence on the 15-minute chart. Further, the MACD is biased toward the bulls.
  • As a result, the stage looks set for a recovery rally above the falling trendline resistance, currently located at 0.7106.
  • The bullish technical setup on the 15-min chart would gain more credence if the China data – Q3 GDP, September retail sales and industrial production – beat estimates. The data is scheduled for release at 2:00 GMT.
  • Should the China data miss estimates, then the pair could regain bearish bias by falling below the overnight low of 0.7089.
