EUR/AUD profit taking in overbought environment

Following massive Aussie weakness in last weeks, the EUR/AUD has posted a double mid term high this last NY session, with a weekly RSI 14 above 80 and bearish divergence in dailys. “The market has been building longs in EUR/AUD over the past few months and we’ve seen big moves in both of these pairs. I think what we’ve seen in the past few sessions has been some aggressive profit taking on these longer term trades,” said FXWW founder Sean Lee.
