Australian Dollar Retreats from August HighsAustralian Dollar Retreats from August Highs
This week, forex traders’ attention is firmly on the AUD/USD market following key news releases from Australia:
→ Tuesday: Interest rate decision. According to ForexFactory, analysts’ forecasts were confirmed as the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) cut the cash rate from 3.85% to 3.60%.
→ Today: Labour market statistics revealed that the unemployment rate fell from 4.3% to 4.2%.
This dynamic fundamental backdrop has driven a rich technical setup on the AUD/USD chart, where bearish sentiment currently prevails.
Technical Analysis of the AUD/USD Chart
Since last month, AUD/USD price movements have been forming a descending channel (highlighted in red), and this week’s reversal from the August high reinforces its relevance.
Key factors emphasising the market’s bearish bias include:
→ Double top pattern formed by recent highs A and B. Notably, the long upper wicks of the candlesticks reflect increasing selling pressure.
→ The August upward move, marked by purple trendlines, may represent a corrective bear flag within the dominant downtrend.
→ Bearish RSI divergence – present not only between highs A and B, but also relative to the 7 July peak.
Potential Support Levels:
→ Lower purple trendline;
→ Line Q, which divides the upper half of the channel into two quarters;
→ The 0.65 psychological level – previously defended strongly by bulls, as evidenced by the wide bullish candle on 12 August, when price surged easily (a sign of buying imbalance).
These supports collectively form a key demand zone (shaded in purple). Bears will need significant momentum to break through this area and extend the prevailing downtrend in AUD/USD through August 2025.

FX:AUDUSD
AUDUSD (Forex CFD) Trade Setup - 3H TimeframeThe Australian Dollar has shown notable weakness against the USD following its July 24, 2025 peak near 0.66200. The 3-hour chart reveals a compelling bearish setup, with price action and volume characteristics aligning to suggest further downside potential.
After an initial sharp decline to 0.64300, AUDUSD staged a significant rebound on August 1, 2025, marked by substantial positive volume. However, this recovery met formidable resistance in the 0.65250-0.65500 zone - a previous support level that has now transformed into resistance. What's particularly noteworthy is the recent price behavior: while the pair has continued to push higher from the 0.64300 area, the declining positive volume since price bounced back up creates a concerning divergence, suggesting waning bullish momentum.
Illustrative Setup: A Sell Stop order at 0.65120 positions us below the current ascending trendline, with a Stop Loss at 0.65530 placed strategically above the resistance zone. The Take Profit target at 0.64300 aligns with the recent support level where significant buying interest emerged. This configuration offers a clean 2:1 reward-risk ratio, providing an attractive opportunity while maintaining prudent risk management.
Key consideration: The combination of the support-turned-resistance zone, volume divergence, and clear market structure provides multiple technical confirmations for this bearish thesis. However, traders should remain vigilant of broader market conditions and potential fundamental catalysts that could impact the Australian Dollar.

AU| Bullish Setup4H price action has been crazy choppy, stuck in a messy range — but I refined and mapped it out.
The 4H high at 0.65533 was broken, price continued higher, then pulled back into my 4H professional order flow area for mitigation.
From there, I dropped to the LTF to plan continuation for the week. I’m watching for liquidity to be swept around 0.64892 and a tap into the OB just below.
Once that happens, I’ll wait for further confirmations before flipping into full execution mode.
Patience first, execution second.
AUDUSD Breakout Setup: Ready for Lift-Off!Hey Guys,
I’ve analyzed the AUDUSD pair for you. If the 0.65245 level breaks to the upside, my target will be 0.65416.
If it doesn’t break, I’ll be looking to buy around 0.65047 or 0.64954.
Either way, my final target remains 0.65416.
In this analysis, I’ve highlighted two key levels and shared my target. I’m planning to buy from these zones.
Every single like from you is my biggest source of motivation to keep sharing these analyses. Huge thanks to everyone who supports by liking!

Key Points
- The U.S. July CPI rose 2.7% year-on-year, falling short of the expected 2.8%, while core CPI increased 3.0%, exceeding the expected 2.9%. Although the figures were mixed, the overall CPI result helped ease inflation concerns stemming from tariffs and strengthened expectations for a September rate cut.
- U.S. President Donald Trump said, “I am considering serious legal action against Powell because he performed terribly and with gross incompetence in managing the construction of the Federal Reserve building,” putting pressure on Fed Chair Powell while continuing to push the Fed to cut rates.
- Ahead of the U.S.-Russia summit on the 15th, Russia attacked eastern Ukraine. This move is seen as an attempt to expand occupied territory before the summit, where territorial issues are expected to be a key agenda item. Ukrainian President Zelensky stated that he could not accept any plan to concede Donbas territory to Russia.
- At its August monetary policy meeting, the Reserve Bank of Australia cut rates by 25bp. It noted that the effects of tariffs are expected to appear in second-half data, and reaffirmed that it will maintain a gradual rate-cut outlook until such data is confirmed.

AUDUSD Chart Analysis
Based on the trend channel, the pair continues to show a gradual upward movement. If there are no major changes, the upward momentum is likely to persist. In the short term, it is important to check whether the 0.66000 level is broken; afterward, the 0.67000 level will serve as the second resistance point to watch. In the long term, a rise toward the 0.69000 level is possible, though short-term pullbacks may occur at each resistance level.
Heading into Fibonacci confluence?The Aussie (AUD/USD) is rising towards the pivot and could reverse to the 1st support which acts as an overlap support.
Pivot: 0.6573
1st Support: 0.6494
1st Resistance: 0.6619
