Idea on a zone

The Australian Dollar (AUD) could edge higher, but it is unlikely to be able to break above 0.6930. In the longer run, AUD has to break and remain above 0.6930 before an advance to 0.6980 can be expected, UOB Group FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann note.

AUD has to remain above 0.6930 to advance towards 0.6980
24-HOUR VIEW: “We highlighted yesterday that AUD ‘could dip below 0.6800 before stabilisation can be expected.’ However, AUD rebounded strongly, reaching a high of 0.6905. The strong rebound has resulted in an increase in momentum, albeit not much. Today, we expect AUD to edge higher, but it is unlikely to be able to break above 0.6930. Support is at 0.6875; a breach of 0.6840 would mean that the current mild upward pressure has eased.”
