AUD vs Majors: Diverging Paths in a Tumultuous Cycle (2019–2025)The Australian Dollar (AUD) has significantly diverged in performance across major currency pairs since 2019. The AUD/JPY (yellow line) stands out with a strong +14.01% gain, reflecting both risk-on sentiment and yen weakness. Meanwhile, AUD/USD and AUD/CAD have both suffered steep declines of -10.24% and -8.85%, respectively, underlining AUD’s vulnerability to global tightening cycles and commodity-related headwinds. Notably, AUD/NZD has remained relatively flat, highlighting the tight correlation between the two regional economies.
This divergence suggests that AUD’s performance is being increasingly shaped by its counterpart's macro narrative—whether it's U.S. monetary policy, Japanese yield control, or New Zealand's economic synchronization.

AUDUSD Short PotentialTechnical Analysis
The AUDUSD pair is currently trending upwards due to USD weakness. The pair seems overbought based on stochastics > 80%
Fundamental Analysis
The RBA is widely expected to cut interest rates at its upcoming 20th May meeting. Inflation has fallen substantially based on previous RBA meeting minutes which warrants a current 25 basis points rate cut with more expected in the future.
Trade Setup
Short positions are preferred based on the current AUDUSD strength with a potential entry around .6547 which is near the 61.8% Fib level with a S/L at .6562 and T/P at the 50% Fib level around .6437.
AudUsd Expanding TriangleAudUsd is making a bullish structure in the more recent timeframes. Based of specific patterns, I'd say this inclines to be an expanding triangle, which price just broke above, and it seems to stay above, after failing to go lower lows near the top. Price broke above, made a retest and I think it is more wise to buy after it made a positive reaction to this well known expanding triangle pattern.
Week of 5/4/25: AUDUSD AnalysisAfter a hellish week of consolidation, price has made its move higher (finally) and we're back to a trendy chart.
My analysis the beginning of the week shows 2 POIs that I am interested in for longs, and if it breaks the level that I pointed out bearish, I will look for shorts.
Thanks for tuning in!

$AUDUSD: low risk long entry GM gents, hope you're having a nice weekend.
I was looking at FX after hearing Warren Buffett's remarks about FX ('wise to own more currencies other than the Dollar') and noticed there's a buy signal in the Aussie Dollar.
I was long FX:USDJPY for a couple days already, so this is the same theme of a rebound in economically sensitive risk assets and commodity currencies.
Best of luck!
Cheers,
Ivan Labrie.

You don't have to TRADE all the timeQuality trade that is what you want! It is better to have a near 100% small profits in your pocket than to RISK a bigger profit that you are not quite sure of. In this case, I would not meddle with this pair.
Is Trump going to continue devalue the US dollar? We have seen how badly it has been beaten down over the last few weeks. Even so, there will be a pull back before the trend continues. And the chart tells me it could goes both way, breaking up from the rectangle or breaking down.
Both buyers and sellers are trading in a small range , I will leave it to the nibble hands to cherry pick their profits.
On hindsight, it is so easy to make comments like - just buy when it hit the support of the rectangle and sell when it hit the top side , rinse and repeat and make millions. HAHAHA.
And if you take these trades as a very small % of your total investment portfolio , just to spice things up or itchy hands or feeling lucky, whatever you call it, just not make it 100% of your time UNLESS you are really , really, really good. Charting is easy, it is managing your own emotions of greed and fear that is difficult. Somedays you feel out of whack, full of frustration and suddenly you see a setup , usually you would enter position size of 1 but this day, you hit 3x as you were feeling angry.
Lucky you, the market moves in your favour and suddenly you are arm with 3x profits and your mind starts wandering - IF only I could repeat this 2x a week each week , wow, wow. How nice ?And down the rabbit hole you go, sucked by the greatest temptation of GREED, IMPATIENCE and PRIDE.
DISCIPLINE is hard , really hard till it becomes a HABIT. If it is that easy, why would people pay for sports coaches to guide them do the things they already know. Or have someone telling you what to eat to stay healthy. Common sense is not commonly practised. That's what make us humans. And humans have its up and downs and thus trading 1-2x a week help to put the lease on your greed and steer you to the investment path instead.
If trading is that easy, why bother to take a degree, goes for interview and all these nonsense? Still believe in the guy who said he traded in his backyard and make millions ? Maybe , 1 out of a million or more so statistically it is hard. Investing in the SPX or QQQ ETF over the long terms yield better returns, allow you to sleep well and not have anxiety or depression over money.
Three Peaks and Domed House
Identification Guidelines
Points Discussion
1, 2 This is the base. It may or may not appear and has no significance.
3, 5, 7 These points form the three peaks pattern. It’s not a triple top where price
needs to peak near the same price. The shape of the peaks may be flat or
pointed. The time between peak 3 and 7 is about 8 months.
4, 6, 8 These are valleys between peaks 3, 5, and 7. The drop to the valley floor
can be considerable (that is, the retrace of the move up from 2 to 3 can
be large).
8, 9, 10 This is the separating decline. Price drops in at least two selling waves (7 to 8
and 9 to 10). The word least suggests there can be multiple selling waves,
so be flexible. The separating decline divides the three peaks from the
domed house, making both look squarish.
10 Valley 10 is always lower than 4 or 6 and often lower than both.
11–14 Price bottoms at 10 and then recovers to form at least two valleys that test
the low at 10. The peaks and valleys here should look symmetrical, not
irregular.
14–23 or 27 The time from turn 14 to 23 should be 7 months and 8-to-10 days, but
the measure from 14 can include peak 27. In other words, be flexible
and don’t exclude a pattern because the duration is incorrect. If price
at 12 or 14 fails to test the low at 10 (or 12 or 14 are absent), then
try using valley 4 or 6 in the 7-month calculation to better predict the
domed house peak.
15 Price rises quickly and steeply to peak 15, forming the left wall of the
first story.
15–20 Look for price to form five waves here, 15–16, 16–17, and so on, ending
at 19–20. Price bounces between peaks and valleys, forming the firstfloor
roof.
20–21 This is the second story’s left wall. It’s the move up to 21 from 20.
21–25 This is the dome of the house. Price forms another set of peaks and valleys,
trying to move to a new high but failing.
25–27 Price drops from 25 and forms a wave 26–27, which may mirror the roof
from 15–20. Point 27, if tall enough, may be the right shoulder of a headand-
shoulders top formed by the move from 21–25.
27–28 Price drops all the way back to the level of point 10 (or close to it). The drop
may be a straight-line run down or it may have several retraces, but price
will eventually make it to the price of 10 (in theory).

Reasoning Narrative
AUDUSD maintained a bullish structure on the 1-hour timeframe, with price forming higher lows and consolidating just below a key resistance area before the session crossover.
AUDUSD LONG SIGNALUnder current market conditions, the area near 0.6407 has been identified as a critical support zone, where the AI model detects a high-probability trade setup.
From a technical perspective, a clear directional bias based on recent price action patterns. Suppose the market demonstrates increased volume and price stability above key moving averages in the 0.6407 area. In that case, traders are advised to monitor for trend-continuation entry opportunities in alignment with the prevailing momentum.
Profit targets are defined at 0.6437 and 0.6489, corresponding to logical technical resistance zones. These levels are designed for staged profit-taking across different trade management styles. Stop-loss should be strictly enforced at the designated level; once breached, the strategy is considered invalidated in order to limit potential downside.
