Highlights

AUD/IDR is under pressure from sellers, trading below key short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages.
Momentum indicators are mixed with MACD and ADX showing strong selling, but some oscillators indicate intraday overbought conditions.
AUD/IDR is projected to trade between Rp11,916 and Rp12,844 over five days, with a 77% probability of a downward move.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees persistent technical weakness in AUD/IDR. He notes the pair is under heavy pressure, trading below all major moving averages. Momentum indicators like MACD and ADX reinforce a bearish bias. The absence of supportive news further limits rebound prospects and underscores a lack of positive sentiment. "With momentum and news both lacking on the upside, I expect further declines unless clear signals emerge to reverse the downtrend."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, takes a constructive view. He highlights that despite short-term downside, the longer-term bullish structure signaled by the MA-50 vs MA-200 alignment remains intact. Karapetjanc emphasizes the projected volatility band and sees opportunity for active traders if a break above Rp12,412 occurs. He is confident that the current setup still offers upward potential on a technical breakout. "Upside targets remain relevant, and I believe further growth is possible on a decisive break through key resistance."

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, identifies near-term volatility and mixed sentiment in the AUD/IDR. He notes that short-term oscillators are flashing overbought signals while MACD and ADX highlight strong selling pressure. The analyst advises caution, pointing to the balance between downside risks and the chance for a reversal from oversold levels. "For short-term traders, I see tactical setups both for range trades and quick momentum plays as dynamics shift."

Ongoing bearish pressure amid mixed momentum signals

AUD/IDR is trading below its 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages at Rp12,486, Rp12,593, and Rp12,412 respectively, signaling ongoing short-, medium-, and longer-term pressure from sellers. The near-term floor stands at Rp12,363 with resistance at the 200-day moving average, and the Ichimoku Kijun also providing support at Rp12,216. Longer-term alignment remains bullish from the MA-50 vs MA-200 positioning. Momentum readings are mixed, as the MACD and ADX show strong selling momentum, but the RSI and CCI suggest moderate buyer interest. Stochastic RSI and BBP are firmly overbought, with buyers dominating intraday action. The pair last traded at Rp12,380, declining 0.53% on the session after an upside gap of 0.18%, with price holding near the day’s low amid intraday volatility of 1.09%. This mix of signals suggests ongoing downside pressure with oscillators flashing conflicting buy and overbought signals against strong underlying bearish momentum.

Earlier, analysts noted that persistent bearish momentum in AUD/IDR was reinforced by technical weakness and official interventions, suggesting a fragile outlook for the pair. The latest intraday data and fresh momentum readings strengthen this view, with continued downside pressure making a break below Rp12,363 a key risk for traders to monitor in the coming sessions.
