AUD/USD analysis for 13/06/2018:

During the night, traders could listen to the speech of the President of the RBA regarding the monetary policy of Australia. For now, there is no reason to adjust monetary policy, so that we can talk about a rate hike, we still need some time. If economic growth remains stable, then the next step of the central bank will be to tighten the policy.

Quarterly results for the first quarter were slightly stronger than expected. Nevertheless, for two years there has been no increase in productivity on the labor market, Lowe intends to emphasize more weight into household finances, especially to consumption growth. The low wage growth means that inflation does not increase. The Bank of Australia would be most pleased with the improvement of wages, because then the rest of the indicators will move in the desired direction.

Let's now take a look at the AUD/USD technical picture at the H4 time frame. After a failure to break out above the 61% Fibo at the level of 0.7659 the price dropped towards the level of 0.7560 and bounced. The overnight data has made the AUD depreciate a little and the level of 0.7560 is being tested again. In a case of a further move lover, the next technical support is seen at the level of 0.7513 and this support is additionally reinforced with the lower boundary od the parallel channel line. The bears would have to push stronger of they want to break below this level as well. The weak momentum supports the downside bias for now.
