You’ll also notice that over the last couple of months, we’ve gradually seen higher levels. So, it’ll be interesting to see if we can build up enough pressure to finally break out as the interest rate differential continues to favor the United States.

AUD/USD Technical Analysis

The Australian dollar has dropped a bit as we continue to sit just above that crucial 0.6550 level, which is an area that I’ve been talking about for what seems like a lifetime now. This is a market that just simply doesn’t have anywhere to be, but it is slowly grinding higher. And that’s probably what you need to pay the most attention to.

If we do break down below the 0.6550 level, then we could see this market drop down to the 50-day EMA. But really, I think at that point, you’d just be looking at a value play. We’ve been in this very tight channel that’s been ascending since the middle of April. At this point, there’s nothing on this chart that tells me things are changing.
