AUD/USD’s rally resumed after brief consolidation and intraday bias is back on the upside for 0.7896 cluster resistance (61.8% retracement of 0.8124 to 0.7500 at 0.7886). Considering bearish divergence condition in 4 hour MACD, upside should be limited by 0.7896/44 to bring a short term top. Break of 0.7804 minor support should turn intraday bias back to the downside for 4 hour 55 EMA (now at 0.7764) and below.
In the bigger picture, we’re still slightly favoring the case that corrective rise from 0.6826 medium term bottom is likely completed at 0.8124, after hitting 55 month EMA (now at 0.8032). But stronger than expected rebound from 0.7500 is dampening this bearish view. On the downside, break of 0.7500 will target 0.7328 key cluster support (61.8% retracement 0.6826 to 0.8124 at 0.7322) to confirm this bearish case. But break of 0.8124 will extend the rise from 0.6826 to 38.2% retracement of 1.1079 (2011 high) to 0.6826 (2016 low) at 0.8451 before completion.
