Australian Dollar Technical Outlook: AUD/USD Multi-Timeframe Analysis

The Australian dollar reversed off a multi-year resistance zone after an eight-week advance, leaving U.S. jobs data to set the next move. Michael Boutros, StoneX Media Senior Market Analyst, walks through the weekly, daily and four-hour charts and explains where the uptrend stays intact and what would signal it is breaking. He also maps the event risk driving the pair, starting with Australian second quarter GDP and running through the ADP private sector employment report and Friday's nonfarm payrolls. Federal Reserve rate expectations swung sharply after the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, and the employment data can reset them again.
