The AUD/NZD caught a bump on Monday, trading into the 1.0870 region after kicking the trading week off near 1.0840. The Aussie (AUD) has caught a mino
r lift back into familiar territory after drifting to a medium-term low near 1.0820 late last week, getting bolstered by improving risk sentiment from China.
Chinese authorities are hitting markets with strong talking points early in the week, essentially warning market participants that they should “voluntarily maintain a stable market” and avoid excessive speculation trading. The Renminbi saw a much stronger fix than usual, and the upside momentum for the Chinese currency is dragging the Aussie higher, with Australia taking pride of place as China’s largest trading partner.
Things are light on the Kiwi side, and changes in market dynamics will rest firmly in the hands of AUD traders for the week. The data point of note for the Aussie this week will be unemployment figures due on Wednesday, which markets are broadly expecting to hold steady at 3.7%.The Aussie-Kiwi pairing is holding steady in consolidation territory just below the 1.0880 level, but the floor has been sagging in recent days, and each downturn for the AUD sees fresh lows.
On the bullish side, a fresh break to the high side will see significant action around the 1.1000 major psychological level, a region from which the Aussie faced rejection seven weeks ago. Meanwhile, a rough wedge on the daily candles is running aground of consolidating support from the constrained 50-day EMA and 100-day SMA.Note: All information on this page is subject to change.
