AUD/USD goofing around the 0.9250 mark

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The AUD/USD foreign exchange rate is last trading around fresh session lows at 0.9254, off recent session highs at 0.9283, retracing on the back of commodities falling and lower than expected retail sales data in Japan just released.

AUD/USD directionless at the time being

“The AUD/USD stands pretty neutral according to the hourly chart, with price hovering around its 20 SMA and indicators around their midlines,” said Valeria Bednarik, Chief Analyst at Fxstreet.com, adding: “In the 4 hours chart, technical readings are also neutral, as the price has been trading in between 0.9100 and 0.9300 for already 2 weeks, leaving the pair directionless at the time being. If something, it will be dollar weakness the one setting a trend in the pair the upcoming Wednesday.”

AUD/USD key technical levels

Bednarik finds support levels at: 09220, 0.9180 and 0.9135, while resistance levels: 0.9270, 0.9310 and 0.9350.

Flash: Japan leaving deflation behind, only the begining - Nomura

The latest all-Japan core core CPI data, +0.4%, has risen by 0.8ppt in just three months, from -0.4% in April, and while Tomo Kinoshita, Chief Economist at Nomura, cautions that this reflects declines in energy prices last year, he also says "it suggest underlying domestic prices are steadily moving toward leaving deflation behind, and we expect that to continue, though we look for y-y changes in energy prices to be a disruptive factor though to September."
