Chart Analysis
The technical analysis of the AUDUSD price chart on 4-hour timeframe shows AUDUSD,H4 is testing the 200-period moving average MA(200) which has leveled off. We believe bullish movement will continue after the price breaches above the upper bound of the Donchian channel at 0.6549. A level above this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 0.6510. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved to the next fractal low indicator, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level without reaching the order, we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.

Australia’s consumer sentiment deteriorated in March. Will the AUDUSD price decline?
Australia’s consumer sentiment deteriorated in March: the Westpac Banking Corporation reported the Westpac Consumer Sentiment Index fell 1.8% to 84.4 in March after 6.2% rise in February. Pessimists heavily outweighed optimists given a reading of 100 is the dividing line. The index has held below 100 since February 2022. Consumer confidence fell in March as Australia’s households remain concerned about their finances and the near-term prospects for the economy. This is bearish for Australian dollar and AUDUSD currency pair. However, the current setup is bullish for the pair.
