FxWirePro: AUD/USD bearish again as upside bias reverses

  • AUD/USD declined sharply on Thursday as Australian dollar was weighted down after weak employment report showed a big slide in full-time jobs which added to the risk of a further cut in interest rates.
     
  • Australian employment unexpectedly fell 9,800 in September as firms shed a huge 53,000 full-time jobs, a disappointing report that slugged the local dollar and could rekindle speculation of further rate cuts.
     
  • The intraday trend remains bearish for the pair as Australian dollar is set to come under pressure as the US dollar is set to strengthen on US rate hike view.
     
  • To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 0.7716, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 0.7753.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 0.7642, a break below this level will open the door towards next level at 0.7596.​
