The move lower Wednesday was quickly reversed with the AUD/USD having found support ahead of the 55 & 21-DMA’s and the pair having bounced sharply above initial layers of resistance. Immediate focus has shifted back to the key $0.9405-61 resistance region. Initial support is now noted on the hourlies at $0.9367 but bears will now need to see a close below the 21-DMA to confirm a break lower with focus then shifting to the $0.9191-0.9233 region

Immediate focus has shifted higher for the NZD/USD following the sharp rally from ahead of the $0.8642 level Wednesday. Initial support is now noted on the hourlies at $0.8700 with bears needing a close below to ease the renewed bullish pressure shifting immediate focus back to the 55-DMA.

Following on from Tuesday’s close below the 100-DMA (NZ$1.0794) the AUD/NZD consolidated below with the bounce so far remaining capped ahead of the 100-DMA. Bulls continue to look for a close above the 55-DMA to confirm a break of the 100-DMA and an easing of bearish pressure with immediate focus shifting to the NZ$1.0875-1.0901 region where the 21-DMA is located. Overall while the 55-DMA caps bears will initially target the NZ$1.0640-48 region.

AUD/JPY found support at the 55-DMA on Tuesday before bouncing from ahead of this support on Wednesday with the bounce and close above Y95.54 having eased the bearish pressure a little. The Y96.24-51 region remains key with the 21 day upper Bollinger band seen coming in just above. Bears now need a close below Y95.54 to see the 21 & 55-DMA pressured with a close below the 21-DMA needed to end bullish hopes and target Y93.40-94

After having corrected a little higher from last week’s fresh 2014 low the EUR/AUD has stalled and headed lower from ahead of initial resistance with the bearish close of some concern to bulls who had been initially targeting the 21-DMA and falling daily trend line. Bears now look for pressure to return to the recent 2014 lows with a break lower favoured while the 21-DMA & falling daily trend line continue to cap on rallies
