AUD/USD holds above 0.71 barrier, good to buy dips
The antipodeans had a subdued tone on Monday as investors showed caution following the Paris terror-strike which triggered risk-off sentiment.
AUD/USD opened Monday's trade at 0.7118, down from a peak of 0.7160 on Friday, briefly dipped below 0.7100 on broad US Dollar strength.
The pair has recovered since and is currently holding above the 0.71 barrier, trading at 0.7112, hourly Tenkan at 0.7115 capping upside in the pair for now, next resistance is seen at 0.7120 (Daily Tenkan)
AUD has been resilient in face of crumbling commodities/'risk-off', underpinning the Aussie was also the speculation that the RBA would hold rates for the next couple of months at least.
Daily price action has dipped below the cloud, but strong support is located at 0.7090 (5 DMA, Channel top), breaks below could take the pair to next support (Double bottom) at 0.7067
