Highlights

  • AUD/USD faces mild short-term selling but maintains a bullish medium- and long-term structure supported by strong upward momentum.
  • Immediate resistance is set at $0.7066, with intraday pressure keeping spot prices near session lows around $0.7036.
  • Projected five-day range is $0.6950–$0.7150, with over 80% probability of price gains as most indicators show a constructive bullish bias.

Buyers test support as momentum signals remain bullish

Momentum indicators on the D1 chart are mixed: ADX and MACD both confirm strengthening bullish momentum, and RSI and CCI remain positive, reflecting steady buying interest without clear overbought signals. Stoch RSI shows strong selling and potential short-term oversold conditions, while BBP's strong buy reading supports underlying buyer dominance. The Awesome Oscillator is also supportive of a bullish bias. Despite this, price has retreated to session lows amid moderate intraday volatility, suggesting sellers are testing support levels, though longer-term momentum remains constructive.

Sideways risk rises as rangebound scenario dominates outlook

In the short term, the expected price band for AUD/USD over the next five trading days is likely between $0.6950 and $0.7150, representing a typical volatility band relative to current levels. There is a very high probability (over 80%) of a price increase, supported by unanimous buy signals from technical indicators on the W1 chart. The baseline scenario favors sideways consolidation within the $0.6950 – $0.7150 range as buying and selling forces rebalance. A sustained move above $0.7066 (immediate resistance) could target the $0.7150 area, whereas a break below $0.6950 might expose the pair to further declines, although any dips should be limited by strong medium-term momentum.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, Traders Union expert, sees steady medium- and long-term bullish momentum in AUD/USD despite mild short-term selling pressure. He notes strong underlying buying interest and constructive technical signals, even as sellers test support near the current session lows. Macro conditions and sentiment remain favorable, with no negative news flow to disrupt the positive outlook. The analyst maintains a high conviction for potential gains but expects consolidation before further upside. "If AUD/USD holds above $0.6950, I anticipate buyers will regain control and drive the pair toward the $0.7150 resistance zone in the coming sessions."

Previously it was reported that AUD/USD is trading above key moving averages, maintaining a bullish trend across all major timeframes, though with a daily pullback and lingering near session lows. Mixed momentum signals—positive MACD and ADX against overbought oscillators—indicate potential for near-term consolidation above support, while the broader bias remains firmly upward.
