Technical Analysis – AUDUSD wobbles near 2-year low

Posted on July 14, 2022 at 7:35 am GMT

AUDUSD hovered quietly near Wednesday’s closing price of 0.6757 during Thursday’s early European trading hours after negligibly rotating at the two-year low of 0.6710. The penetrated support line drawn from the August 2021 low of 0.7105 is now acting as resistance around the same region, preventing any increases towards the 20-day simple moving average (SMA) at 0.6850. Even higher, the tentative descending trendline and the 50-day SMA around 0.6978 may also defend the negative trend in the market ahead of the 0.7070 [..]
