AUD/USD Price Prediction: 0.6770 aims to recapture last week's high

During the Asian session, the AUD/USD pair broke above the thin consolidation around 0.6720. As market risk appetite rises, the Australian asset has surged over 0.6750 and is expected to reclaim the previous week's high around 0.6770.

 

In the meantime, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is experiencing firm resistance near the key level of 104.00, as a decrease in the United States Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE)-Price Index has boosted expectations of less-hawkish monetary policy in the near future from the Federal Reserve (Fed).

 

Thursday's responsive buying activity in the Australian dollar at 0.6660 pushed the asset above the 50-period and 200-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) at 0.6703 and 0.6717 respectively. After surpassing the previous week's peak of approximately 0.6770, the Australian Dollar will see significant increases.

 

In addition, the Relative Strength Index (14) has moved into the positive zone between 60.00 and 80.00, indicating the emergence of bullish momentum.

 

The Australian dollar will face round-level resistance and the high from December 14 around 0.6800 and 0.6880, respectively, after surpassing the previous week's high at 0.6770.

 

In contrast, a loss below the December 12 low of about 0.6630 will drive the asset towards the round-level resistance at 0.6600, followed by the November 8 high of about 0.6550.
