  • The weekly R1 could be used as a near-term  target, as an obstacle.

The AUD/USD forecast sees the pair rallying at the time of writing, after invalidating a larger correction. In the short term, the pair has printed a continuation pattern. Escaping from this formation signals further growth.

The USD drops again versus its rivals as the Dollar Index failed to stabilize in the buyers territory and to resume its rebound. Going down, the DXY signals that the greenback could depreciate versus its rivals.

The AUD/USD pair found strong support at 0.7453 level below the 0.7478 key level. It has escaped from the down channel pattern and now is located 0.7500 psychological level and above the ascending pitchfork’s warning line (wl1).

Also, the weekly R1 (0.7548) could be used as an immediate obstacle. Technically, the downside seems limited after failing to drop below the weekly pivot of 0.7463. 

Also, its failure to make a new lower low, to close below 0.7453 signalled that the sellers are exhausted.
