Ghost's AUD/USD Setup [LONG/SHORT]I believe at the moment shorts and longs are valid, shorts on the short-term, longs for the long-term no pun intended. We have an equal low created leaving behind internal liquidity I am expecting to be swept before price can continue higher, 0.617 to me seems to be a strong & critical area of price for the current environment and as such, could be tapped before price continues to .65+. RBA interest rate decision is around the corner & COT positioning is indicating profit take so be careful gang. As it stands right now GTFX is on a 22 win streak, almost 300 pips acquired for 2025 already and a lot more to come.

Massive week for Aussie and Kiwi markets The Reserve Bank of Australia’s first meeting of the year is days away with money markets pricing in an 86% chance of a 25bps cut and a 14% chance that rates unchanged. However, Australia Finacial Review’s John Kehoe suggests market expectations of a 90% probability for a cut may be overstated, arguing the decision is closer to a 50/50 call. If the RBA cuts rates on Tuesday, it could support the government's message that cost-of-living pressures are easing and could lead to an early election announcement. If rates remain unchanged, the prime minister may delay the election until mid-April or May, hoping for a cut at the RBA’s next meeting on April 1. Meanwhile, the RBNZ is expected to cut rates this week, with markets pricing a 68% chance of a 50bps cut and a 32% chance of a 25bps reduction. A Reuters poll of 33 economists found 32 expecting a 50bps cut. However, ASB chief economist Nick Tuffley anticipates smaller 25bps cuts in April and May instead.

AUDUSDFundamental Analysis of AUD/USD (February 2025) This analysis includes updated macroeconomic indicators, geopolitical factors, data from the Commitment of Traders (COT) report, possible scenarios, and a favorable scenario based on existing economic data. 1. Macroeconomic Indicators and Monetary Policy Australia • GDP and Economic Growth: • The Australian economy has shown modest growth in recent quarters, influenced by global demand for raw materials and economic conditions in China, Australia’s main trading partner. • Inflation: • Inflation expectations have risen to 4.6% in February 2025, up from 4.0% in the previous month, marking the highest level in the past 10 months. • RBA Monetary Policy: • The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is expected to cut interest rates by 75 basis points during 2025, with the first reduction potentially coming in the upcoming meeting. • Unemployment and Labor Market: • The unemployment rate has remained stable at around 4%, supported by job growth and public sector spending. United States • GDP and Economic Growth: • The US economy continues to expand, supported by consumer spending and a strong labor market. • Inflation: • Inflation remains above the 2% target set by the Federal Reserve (Fed), prompting the central bank to maintain a restrictive monetary policy. • Fed Monetary Policy: • The Fed has kept its benchmark interest rate between 4.25% and 4.50%, reflecting a cautious stance amid inflationary pressures. • Unemployment and Labor Market: • The US unemployment rate remains low, indicating a resilient job market. 2. Geopolitical Factors • US-China Trade Relations: • The US administration has announced 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, set to take effect on March 12, 2025. These measures could negatively impact the Australian dollar, given Australia’s reliance on commodity exports to China. • Fiscal Policies: • The US budget deficit and expansionary fiscal policies may influence the long-term strength of the US dollar. 3. Commitment of Traders (COT) Report - February 11, 2025 Non-Commercial Traders (Large Speculators): • Long Positions: Data not available • Short Positions: Data not available • Net Position: -65,600 (short on AUD) • This indicates a bearish sentiment among large speculators, who anticipate a depreciation of the Australian dollar. Commercial Traders (Hedgers): • Long Positions: Data not available • Short Positions: Data not available • Net Position: Data not available • Without specific data, it is difficult to assess commercial traders’ positioning. Small Traders (Non-Reportable): • Long Positions: Data not available • Short Positions: Data not available • Net Position: Data not available • Without precise data, evaluating small traders’ sentiment remains uncertain. Interpretation: • Large speculators hold net short positions on the Australian dollar, suggesting expectations of further depreciation. • Due to the lack of detailed data on commercial and small traders, assessing their positioning remains inconclusive. 4. Possible Scenarios for AUD/USD Scenario 1: AUD Depreciation (Bearish for AUD/USD) • Triggers: • The RBA cuts interest rates. • Rising trade tensions between the US and China negatively impact Australian exports. • A slowdown in China’s economy reduces demand for Australian commodities. • Outcome: • AUD/USD may drop below 0.64. Scenario 2: Consolidation (Sideways Movement) • Triggers: • Mixed economic data from both countries. • The Fed and RBA maintain cautious approaches. • Outcome: • AUD/USD remains between 0.65 and 0.67. Scenario 3: AUD Appreciation (Bullish for AUD/USD) • Triggers: • The RBA delays or limits rate cuts. • The US economy shows signs of slowing down, leading to a shift in Fed policy. • Easing trade tensions between the US and China. • Outcome: • AUD/USD may rise above 0.70. 5. Favorable Scenario Based on Current Data Given macroeconomic data, COT positioning, and geopolitical factors, the medium-term favorable scenario for AUD/USD is one of consolidation, with potential for a moderate AUD recovery. • Reasons: • Large speculators are heavily short on the Australian dollar, but potential RBA policy shifts may lead to a reversal. • The Australian economy remains stable, with inflation slightly higher than expected. • If the Fed signals a more dovish approach, the US dollar may weaken, supporting AUD/USD. • Target: • AUD/USD may test 0.67 - 0.69 in the coming months. 6.

AUDUSD. Medium-term analysisHey traders and investors! It might be time to look for buying opportunities in the Australian dollar Weekly Timeframe Analysis The Australian Dollar (AUD) against the US Dollar (USD) has been in a sideways range since January 2023 (point 4 was formed). Range Boundaries: Upper Boundary: 0.71578. Lower Boundary: 0.61702 Range Vector Analysis The last realized range vector 6-7 was a seller's vector, which broke through the lower boundary of the range (0.61702). The weekly volumes of this vector are concentrated at the end of October - early November. Above the 0.65124 level, three weekly bars with increased volume are concentrated. A buyer's vector 7-8 is now forming, with a potential target of 0.69426. In the emerging buyer's vector, there are three bars with increased volume, which may indicate buyer interest at these price levels. The first resistance on the buyer's path on the weekly TF is the level of 0.65124, as above it, volumes are concentrated in the seller's vector, and this price level is slightly below the 50% mark of the last seller's vector. Daily Timeframe Analysis On the daily timeframe, the price has broken through the upper boundary of the range 0.63308, which formed in January. Range Boundaries: Upper Boundary: 0.63308. Lower Boundary: 0.60878 Range Vector Analysis The last realized vector 9-10 was a buyer's vector. The volumes are concentrated in the upper part of the vector. Note the daily bars on February 7 and 12, when the seller tried to start the implementation of their vector 10-11 with increased volume. The buyer absorbed these attempts and, on decreasing volume, broke through the upper boundary of the range 0.63308. Conclusions Buying (buying patterns) should be considered as long as the price remains above the upper boundary of the range on the daily TF - 0.63308 (priority option). This idea aligns with the implementation of the buyer's vector on the weekly TF. Selling (selling patterns) is risky, as the buyer's vector is active on the weekly TF, and the price has exited the range upwards on the daily TF. Even if the seller returns the price to the range on the daily TF, volumes under the lower boundary of the range may trigger a buyer's reaction. I wish you profitable trades!
