The Forex Pattern Price Time Report - AUD USD - Evening Session

The AUD USD continued lower as resumption in the down trend in commodity prices is leading traders to believe the Reserve Bank of Australia will have to cut interest rates before the end of the year.  With key sectors of the Australian economy already slowing, lower commodity prices such as gold and wheat will add to the erosion of support for the Aussie.  Only higher gold or crude will save this market from making a new low for the year.

Techncially, this market is walking down a resistance angle at .8650.  Look for lower markets as long as this pair remains under this angle.  The weak close has this market in a position to take out the last main bottom at .8590 and resume the down trend.  This would set up a further decline to the low for the year at .8511.
