Decision Time For AUD/USD, Reports TechWizard

Technicals | Jan 14 2013

It's make or break time for the Aussie dollar, reports the TechWizard.

The currency has enjoyed firm support on the back of a global rally in risk assets, but this week FX traders will have to make a tough decision: can/will AUD/USD rally past technical resistance at 1.0600, or will we see a pull back to 1.03-1.02 ?

The Wizard observes AUD/USD has tried a few times to rally past 1.06. The last attempt was last week and it failed.

A break above 1.06 would in particular mark a strong signal if it was achieved on a weekly closing basis, reports the Wizard. His attention is focused for a potential rally towards 1.08.

But first there's an obstacle to overcome.
