The best method to identify a classic “price action reversal” is for an hourly candle to close, such as a pin bar, a doji, an outside or even just an engulfing candle with a higher close. You can exploit these levels or zones by watching the price action that occurs at the given levels.

AUD/USD Analysis

I wrote last Thursday that the price may have made a major bottom, but it seemed the bullish movement may be running out of steam. I thought that a sustained break below the support at 0.6963 would be a significant sign that more consolidative, choppy price action was getting established as a pattern. However, if alternatively, the price could get above 0.7000 properly, I thought that would be a bullish sign.

I think this was a good call as the price moved up but failed quickly once it broke above 0.7000.

The picture remains interesting as the price has retraced to the support level at 0.6963 which has held up so far. We may now get another bullish move and there could be a chance to enter here close to this support level with low risk.

I would take a bullish bias if the price is held up by 0.6963 going into the New York session and then starts to see some bullish momentum.AUDUSDThere is nothing important due today concerning either the AUD or the USD.
