FxWirePro: AUD/USD spikes past 0.75 handle, bias higher, good to go long on dips

Technical Analysis:

• AUD/USD has spiked past major hurdle at 0.75 which was converged 100 & 200 DMAs.
• Momentum with the bulls, we see scope for test of 78.6% Fib at 0.7645.
• Minor weakness on intraday charts should be used as buying opportunities.
• Weakness only on close below 0.75 handle, test of 0.7469 (50% Fib) then likely.
• On the weekly charts, the pair trades above 100-MA at 0.7432. 
• RSI and Stochs on weekly charts are biased higher and MACD is on verge of a bullish crossover.

Fundamental Factors:

• Aussie continues to gain support from solid Chinese bulk prices and the general correction in USD
• Data released earlier today showed Australia Westpac Consumer Confidence Index increased to 97.4 in January from previous 97.3
• US CPI release and Yellen speech will be in focus - as the unwinding of the Trump trade appears to have gathered pace.
