The AUD/USD pair fell during the week initially, but then bounced during the Janet Yellen speech on Friday. Ultimately, this is a market that ended up forming a hammer, which is preceded by two other hammers. I believe this is a very bullish sign, and that the market will continue to try to reach above the 0.80 level. However, until we close above it on a weekly chart, I’m not interested in putting a longer-term “buy-and-hold” trade. I think pullbacks will continue to be buying opportunities, but on short-term charts.
