AUD/USD bounced sharply from ahead of layers of support in the $0.9286-12 region yesterday including the 100 and 21 DMA’s before stalling ahead of the $0.9358 Sept 20 high. A close below the Sept 30 low is needed to confirm a break of the 21 and 100-DMA’s and relieve the current bullish focus, while back below the $0.9221 Sept 10 low shifts overall focus lower. For now immediate focus in on a test of the Sept 18 high

NZD/USD bounce failed at the $0.8345 hurdle on Tuesday. Layers of support remain in the $0.8159-0.8218 region with a close below the $0.8159 level needed to confirm a break of the 200-DMA and shift overall focus back to tests of the 2013 low. While the $0.8159-0.8218 support region remains potential exists for further bounces back towards the $0.8345 level with a close above needed to target a test of the Sept monthly high.

AUD/NZD: A key bullish outside day reversal yesterday with the sharp move higher pausing ahead of the key NZ$1.1401 resistance level and the 21-DMA noted just below at NZ$1.1397. A close above NZ$1.1401 confirms a break of the 21-DMA and is needed to end bearish aspirations and see the overall focus shift higher to the NZ$1.1658 Sept monthly high, with the 100-DMA noted just below at NZ$1.1634. Below NZ$1.1282 is needed to relieve the immediate bullish focus.

AUD/JPY continued the bounce from ahead of the Sept 6 low that began on Monday with the pair spiking above the 21-DMA before closing back below. A close above the Sept 26 high is now needed to shift overall focus to tests of the 200-DMA. Layers of support remain in the Y90.11-67 region with a close below the Y90.11 previous resistance level needed to confirm a break of the 55-DMA and see overall focus shift lower to retests of the 2013 low.

EUR/AUD: The A$1.4558 resistance level has confirmed its significance with it having capped the past three days. The euro-aussie pullback Tuesday dipped below the 21-DMA before closing marginally above. While the A$1.4558 level caps potential remains for retests of the A$1.4165-97 support region with a break below remaining favoured. A close above A$1.4558 is needed to end bearish aspirations and see overall focus shift back to the 2013 high.

USD/KRW: A close above Krw1081.1 remains needed to relieve the immediate bearish focus, while back above the Krw1091.1 level is needed to shift focus back to the Krw1101.8-1108.4 region. It is worth noting that the falling daily channel top comes in just below the Krw1105.4 level and adds additional significance to the resistance region. Daily tech studies have corrected a little from oversold levels and are no longer considered to be an issue.

USD/SGD: The lack of follow through on the recent attempts higher have resulted in a correction lower that has retested the 200-DMA. A close above Monday’s high is needed to hint at a continuation higher that initially targets the pivotal Sgd1.2649 resistance. A close above Sgd1.2649 is needed to shift overall focus back to retests of the Sgd1.2812-60 region. For now the immediate focus is on a continuation lower that tests the June monthly low
