The AUDUSD has been mostly oscillating, since the 14th of December 2016, within a downside formation between the range of 0.7525 and 0.7292 respectively.

The price is now oscillating below the 0.7292 zone which is today’s major pivot point area.

The Stochastic oscillator also confirms that the price has greater chances to retrace and decline at the 55 level.

Alternative Scenario

Alternatively, should the buyers take the lead and boost the price above the 0.7380 area Fibonacci’s 161.8% the pair could appreciate as high as 0.7525.
