AXY (Aussie Dollar Index) Ok, the Aussie currently is currently getting rejected from the major resistance level. there is no real harmonic pattern to draw so here is the COT analysis.
i think the aussie might be making moves to switch sides the open interest increased by 3500 orders the Commercial Longs reduced their positions by 4500 orders while the commercial shorts increased their orders by 5600 orders. So, unlike The Cables index the BXY the AXY looks to be adding orders to their respective opposite sides looking to switch sides. the Non-Commercials are looking at the same. NonCom longs increased their position long by 3300 orders while the shorts reduced thier side by 800 orders. Now lets remember the Non-Commercials are for profit and pay taxes as such, to where the Commercials are hedging for rate locks and profit protection from actual business they conduct inter-business-ly (if thats even a word)
so as it stands for the Aussie the Net numbers are as follows:
Commercials- Current = 43,641 // Previous = 53,852
Non-Coms - Current= (36,575) // Previous- (40,791)
So, i reckon if you have any trades against the Aussie it might be a wise decesion to close them out and book profit or take small loss, i dont see the Aussie Weakening this coming week. we might see some minor drawdown but thats about the extent of it the the commercials are switching sides with the non-commercials. remember this is a long process becasue big business and banks just cant switch sides over-night it would crash the world economy so look at it as each week they take a big step toward the Zero Line and then swich sides. during this process we will see that pair get stronger and stronger and before you know it youre in a bull trend when everyone can see it then its time to switch sides again.
AXY trade ideas
Wait Point 71.6 For the Australian dollar c currencyThe Australian dollar index is in a declining general trend since 2011, but it broke the trend line and returned to test it unless it broke its resistance 71.6 and trades above the trend and returns inside the symmetrical triangle and its target is resistance 81 .If, however , the trend is tested and traded beneath it, its target 53/41 we wait for this joint point 71.6 and we follow the event.
AXY: Barely Neutral Wait for price action to test 64.0.
Non-Commercial Traders have been dumping the Aussie Dollar for over a week. Price action is testing the bottom of this 4 Hour Chop Block. Yet, the pair is still relatively neutral. Breaking 64.0 will be a major move and a possible indication of long-term direction.
The entire move is a near .886 of the March 9 High 64.7. However, falls short and is more of a .782 sloppy corrective pattern. That doesn't indicate strong momentum downward. However , doesn't justify changing long-term trend.
As Non-Commercial traders dump this pair, it could in fact continue the pair into its overall bias. Breaking 64.0 opens the door to 63.9 and 63.5.
FX | Australian Dollar Currency IndexFX | Australian Dollar Currency Index | The long term trajectory remains lower, with the price currently being rejected at the key 70 level, which previously served as the prior breakout zone (April 2009) and the prior support (September 2016 to February 2016). The current price action suggest that the weight of probabilities lean toward a test of the 2008/2009 Global Financial Crisis lows at 62c.
