AUD/USD oversold with daily RSI (14) at 25.67

FXStreet (Guatemala) - AUD/USD is trading at 0.8210, up 0.02% on the day, having posted a daily high at 0.8221 and low at 0.8210.

AUD/USD marked fresh four-year lows as risk-off markets take a hold while commodity currencies took a hit as oil continues to print lower. The greenback was also making a recovery on the back of the industrial production uptick surprises.

Next up, we have the RBA’s minutes where the language may have changed somewhat given Stevens' recent rhetoric and continued jawboning of the currency where he said he would prefer it at 0.75c than at 0.85c.

There after, we have a speech from Guy Debelle, the RBA’s Assistant Governor, at the 27th Australasian Finance and Banking Conference, Sydney. He will be taking on “International Business...Global Financial Stability”.

From a technical perspective, the market is somewhat overstretched to the downside reading into oversold territory with RSI (14) at 25.67 on the daily chart. Should the market consolidate or rebound, the fundamental motivation to fade the upside may offer opportunities directly below where lies the 200 quarter ma at 0.8149 and the 0.8068 (2010 low). These are key levels noted by Karen Jones, chief analyst at Commerzbank. "We have a long term double Fib
support at 0.7950/30. These are 3 major levels of support for the market and we are not surprised to an attempt to recover".
