Forex: AUD/USD keeps the red around 1.0365/70
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Aussie dollar is losing ground on Thursday, prolonging the softer tone seen overnight around 1.0370/75
In light of the results of the RBA Foreign Exchange Transactions, Analyst Adrian Foster at Rabobank commented, “The RBA sold (net) A$328M of AU$ to the market in February. At the same time it bought A$345M of AU$ from the government as the government paid its bills. Thus, there’s no suggestion of FX intervention to weaken the AU$ in these data”.
At the moment, the cross is losing 0.11$% at 1.0370 with the next support at 1.0358 (MA200d0 ahead of 1.0351 (low Mar.19) and then 1.0333 (MA10d).
On the upside, a breakout of 1.0405 (MA100d) would bring 1.0410 (high Mar.18) and finally 1.0413 (daily cloud top).
