AUD/USD Uplifted

AUD/USD is trading sharply higher in today's morning hours due to technicals indicating that a rise was about to happen. The pair was hesitating for the whole past week gravitating towards the 0.7460 level. Bears made one last try to bring price down on Friday when it reached 0.7442 wiping out most of the longs, me included, only to recover quickly back to the 0.7470 level.

Today AUD/USD reached a comfortable high of 0.7536 and is currently trading at 0.7527. First resistance is seen at 0.7584 and second at 0.7676. If there's a tailwind the pair might very well get to the other side above 0.77.

On the other hand, a fail to sustain the momentum might bring price back below the support channel at 0.7440.
