Evening Star Candle Highlights A Bearish Threat

AUDUSD TECHS
  • RES 4: 0.7393 High Nov 10
  • RES 3: 0.7371 High Nov 15
  • RES 2: 0.7353 Former channel base drawn from the Aug 20 low
  • RES 1: 0.7229/7314 High Jan 17 / High Jan 13
  • PRICE: 0.7193 @ 06:42 GMT Jan 19
  • SUP 1: 0.7155 Low Jan 11
  • SUP 2: 0.7130 Low Jan 7
  • SUP 3: 0.7082 Low Dec 20 and a key support
  • SUP 4: 0.7069 76.4% retracement of the Dec 3 - Jan 13 upleg

AUDUSD remains below recent highs. The move lower is still a concern for bulls and a deeper retracement would expose 0.7130, the Jan 7 low. The 3-day price action between Dec 12 -14 is an evening star candle pattern and is a strong reversal signal. A turn higher and importantly a break of 0.7314, Jan 13 high would resume the recent upleg and cancel the developing bearish threat.
