The AUD/USD pair attracts some follow-through selling following the previous day's failure to find acceptance above the 0.7000 psychological mark and weakens to the 0.6970 area during the Asian session on Tuesday. Spot prices move little in reaction to Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) Governor Michele Bullock’s comments and remain confined in a familiar range held over the past two weeks or so.
The US Dollar (USD) sticks to its bullish undertone as the optimism over a potential US-Iran diplomacy to end a five-month-old conflict fades after Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Iraq reported drone attacks on Monday. This keeps geopolitical risk premium in play and acts as a tailwind for the safe-haven Greenback, exerting some downward pressure on the AUD/USD pair. Traders, however, might refrain from placing aggressive bets ahead of the crucial two-day FOMC policy meeting, starting later today.
The recent repeated failures to break through the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the May-June downfall suggest that the recovery from the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) has run out of steam. That said, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram remains marginally positive while the MACD line stays above the signal line, hinting that bullish momentum persists even as the neutral Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests only modest directional conviction.
Hence, it will be prudent to wait for some follow-through selling below the 23.6% Fibo. level before placing fresh bearish bets on the AUD/USD pair and positioning for a retest of the 200-day SMA at 0.6904. This is followed by the 0.6868 Fibonacci anchor, which reinforces a deeper structural floor should a corrective pullback unfold. On the topside, initial resistance is aligned with the 38.2% Fibo. retracement at 0.7024 ahead of the 50% retracement at 0.7073 and then 0.7121 at the 61.8% Fibo. level.
