Pair's Outlook
The Australian Dollar does not show any bullish momentum to breach the 20-day SMA and get back to a 1.04 area, where the major SMAs intersect. Currently the pair fluctuates in a 100 pips wide lat channel and it seems that AUD/USD is getting ready for a fall, since the weekly PP level was strong yesterday, and the price slipped towards the monthly S2 at 1.0244. The closest support is at 1.0222, where the weekly S1 merges with the lower Bollinger band.
Traders' Sentiment
Popularity of the Aussie is improving, as long positions for the currency increased by 2% and reached 44%. The sell side slipped to 56% and sill maintains a fragile majority. Pending orders market almost perfectly reflects the spot market, as 47% are waiting for a long position and 53% for a short.
