AUD/USD Teeters On The Brink of A Correction Following Reversal Signal
Talking Points
- AUD/USD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred
- Shooting Star and Bearish Engulfing patterns offer warnings
- Key resistance remains at 0.9440, support at 0.9330
The Australian Dollar is teetering on the brink of a correction following the formation of a Shooting Star pattern near key resistance at 0.9440. The bearish reversal signal has received confirmation form a successive down period, which suggests a potential dip to support at 0.9300. While on first glance, the setup appears promising, traders should be mindful that the uptrend remains intact and a similar signal back in April failed to elicit a bearish reaction.
