Upward momentum has largely faded
24-HOUR VIEW: "Yesterday, we detected 'a slight increase in downward momentum.' We expected AUD to 'edge lower,' but we indicated that 'any decline is unlikely to reach 0.6315.' Our view was correct, as AUD dipped to 0.6323, recovering to close largely unchanged at 0.6344 (-0.09%). The mild downward pressure has eased. Today, we expect AUD to trade in a 0.6325/0.6365 range."
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "After holding a positive AUD view since early this month, we revised our view to neutral yesterday (25 Feb, spot at 0.6345).
