Pair's Outlook
The AUD/USD currency pair remained relatively unchanged by the end of the inauguration day, putting the ascending channel's support line to the test. From the technical perspective the Aussie is expected to edge higher today, being supported by the up-trend and the weekly PP. On the other hand, the pair was unable to climb over the 0.7570 level through all of the previous week, which could be difficult to achieve today as well. Technical studies, however, suggest the Australian Dollar is to end the day in the green zone, prolonging the ascending channel pattern. The immediate resist, namely the weekly R1 at 0.7611, is unlikely to be reached.
Traders' Sentiment
Today 64% of traders are short the Aussie, compared to 61% on Friday. Meanwhile, the share of purchase orders inched up from 50 to 54%.
