AUDUSD bulls cheer the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) 25 basis points (bps) rate hike in early Tuesday. The recovery moves also justify the RSI rebound from oversold territory, as well as pierce a downward sloping resistance line from April 21, near 0.7100 by the press time. Considering the RBA’s hawkish moves, backed by firmer technicals, the Aussie pair is likely rising towards the mid-March swing low surrounding 0.7165. However, the 200-SMA and previous support line from March, around 0.7285 and 0.7410 in that order, will challenge the bulls afterward.
Meanwhile, the pair’s fresh downside may aim for the 0.7040 level before directing the bears towards the 0.7000 psychological magnet. Following that, the yearly bottom surrounding 0.6965 will be in focus as a break of which will direct the AUDUSD bears toward the mid-2020 lows near 0.6775.
Overall, AUDUSD is cheering the well-due recovery as the RBA announced rate-hike. However, the upside momentum needs validation from the Fed before reversing the broadly bearish trend.
