The AUD\/USD is ready to finish the week positive, up by 0.90%. The chance of a US Federal Reserve 0.50% rate hike in September lies at 80%.
The Australian dollar slumps during the last day of the week but it obstinately remains above the 0.7200 threshold as AUD\/USD sellers mount a break to the figure. At 0.7210, the AUD\/USD reflects the aforementioned, as risk-aversion rules the market, and the greenback got a boost on upbeat US data.
The AUD\/USD Friday\u2019s price action shows the major failure to remain above the 200-day moving average (DMA), at 0.7256. Additionally, the AUD\/USD slid below the crossing of the 50-DMA under the 100 one, further exacerbating a downward move. Also, the Relative Strength Index (RSI), albeit in bullish territory, the oscillator slope shifted downwards, aligned with the major\u2019s price action.
European shares closed the week with losses. Equities are plummeting between 0.67% and 2.13% in the US after market players digested a stronger-than-expected jobs report, though financial analysts\u2019 opinions reinforced the Federal Reserve tightening pace. Money market futures odds of the US central bank hiking 50 bps in September lie at 85%, while the June and July meetings are fully priced in.
Technically; the AUD\/USD is neutral biased, as the daily moving averages (DMAs) remain directionless. Nevertheless, traders need to be aware that although the AUD\/USD broke above the May 5 0.7266 high, buyers could not hold to it, and sellers dragged the pair from above the 200-DMA, under the previously-mentioned, alongside the 50 and 100-DMAs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
