AUDUSD scrapes along the bottom

The AUDUSD is scraping along the bottoms over the last 9 trading days. Between 0.68409 and 0. 6858, there have been a number of swing lows that have seen bounces back higher . The low today stalled at the low from Monday at the lowest of those extremes. Risk focused traders are leaning. If the low is broken it should open the door for more selling.

The move lower today came after the pair first moved higher in the Asian session. That run higher saw the pair move up to test the falling 200 hour MA (green line) currently at 0.69039. The 100/200 hour MAs are both at that level currenly It would take a move above - and stay above - to give the dip buyers more control.

Ahead of those MAs on the topside are the swing lows from August 5 at 0.6869, and then the swing low from August 2 at 0.69847. Admittedly, the price action over the last 9 trading days has seen price action above and below those levels. Nevertheless, when trying to build a bounce, I think those levels would need to be re-broken to tell a more bullish story.

# GBPUSD tests 61.8% and swing area The GBPUSD is in an up and down day. The    GBPUSD  moved higher earlier. That move was helped by better than expected retail sales. However the high price today stalled near the high price from last week near 1.3643, and rotated back lower on the USD buying. The subsequent move lower now has the price back toward the 61.8% retracement along with a swing area between 1.35969 and 1.36034. As I type, the price has dipped below that swing area. What next? If the price can stay below the 1.36034 area, that would be the best case scenario for the sellers with the next major targets coming in at the 100 hour moving average 1.3569 (blue line), and the 200 hour moving average at 1.35609 (green line). The 50% midpoint of the 2022 trading range is just below those levels at 1.35526 and would be a another target on further weakness. A move back above 1.36034 with momentum would have traders looking again toward 1.3618 to 1.36271 and then t...
