AUD/CAD Technical Analysis: 0.9475/80 confluence is in spotlight ahead of Aussie retail sales, trade balance


  • The AUD/CAD pair trades near 0.9455 during the early Asian session on Thursday.
  • The quote again heads to 0.9475/80 resistance confluence including 50-day simple moving average and a downward sloping trend-line stretched since December 05.
  • However, Australian retail sales and trade balance data can drag the pair down if flashing weak signals.
  • On the downside, 0.9380 and 0.9315 likely nearly support for the pair traders to watch.
  • Should prices slide under 0.9315, 0.9270 and 0.9220 can please sellers.
  • Meanwhile, an upside clearance of 0.9480 may have to surpass 100-day SMA level of 0.9505 in order to justify its strength in targeting late-January high of 0.9580.
  • Additionally, the AUD/CAD pair’s successful trading above 0.9580 enables it to challenge 0.9630 and 0.9680 resistances.
