Focus Chart of the Day: EUR/AUD

EUR/AUD posted an “outside day” reversal yesterday near the 1.4580 38% retracement of the year’s range. A couple of near-term Fibonacci timing relationships are converging around this time which argue the cross is susceptible to a decent correction over the next few days. The 1.4410/20 area is a clear near-term pivot with weakness below needed to confirm that a more meaningful reversal is indeed underway. Any strength through 1.45850 would invalidate this burgeoning negative cyclical view and re-focus higher.
