The Australian Dollar (AUD) is expected to trade in a sideways range of 0.6775/0.6825. In the longer run, there is still room for AUD to rise further, but there may not be enough momentum for it to challenge 0.6870, UOB Group FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia note.
AUD may try to challenge 0.6870
24-HOUR VIEW: “AUD traded between 0.6784 and 0.6829 last Friday, narrower than our expected sideways trading range of 0.6780/0.6840. There has been no increase in either upward or downward momentum, and we continue to expect AUD to trade sideways. Expected range for today: 0.6775/0.6825.”
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: “We continue to hold the same view as last Friday (20 Sep, spot at 0.6800). As highlighted, while there is still room for AUD to continue to rise, it may not have enough momentum to challenge to significant resistance at 0.6870. On the downside, a breach of 0.6740 (no change in ‘strong support’ level) would mean that the upward pressure that started early last week has eased.”
