AUDUSD Analysis: The Australian dollar is on the line

In this comprehensive analysis, Ultima Markets brings you an insightful breakdown of the AUDUSD for JAN 23, 2025.

Fundamental Analysis of AUDUSDAUDUSD Key Takeaways

  • Today’s data: The United States will release the number of initial jobless claims for the week ending January 18; at the same time, Canada will also release the monthly rate of retail sales in November.
  • US-Australia interest rate differential: The outlook for interest rates in the United States has changed due to inflation and the risks of Trump’s new presidency. For Australia, this increases the risk of inflation. The market expects that unless the inflation rate in the fourth quarter falls to at least 3.25% from 3.5% in the third quarter, the pace of interest rate cuts by the Reserve Bank of Australia will slow down.

  • Stochastic oscillator: The upward momentum of the fast and slow lines slowed down yesterday, and the fast line showed signs of turning, suggesting that the current bullish force slowed down, but if no short signal is formed today, the bullish trend is expected to continue.
  • Head and shoulders bottom: After the AUD/USD ended its decline on January 13, it formed a bottom structure suspected of head and shoulders bottom. The exchange rate is currently blocked by the black horizontal line. After the price effectively breaks through this resistance level, the next target is to look at the upper rectangular resistance band.

  • Liquidity: After the AUD/USD hit the previous high of 0.62863 yesterday, a false breakout pattern appeared. From the perspective of ICT strategy, it is a typical plunder of the upper bullish liquidity. If the exchange rate continues to fall to the 0.62636 level, the exchange rate will still not be able to break through the previous high price during the Asian session.
  • Support price: Based on the short-term decline logic during the Asian session, the two support levels below the current exchange rate are 0.62636 and 0.62525.
