AUD/USD supported on China again
FXStreet (Barcelona) - AUD/USD is trading at 0.8759, down -0.22% on the day, having posted a daily high at 0.8783 and low at 0.8751.
AUD/USD has found some bids on the back of a positive result again coming in from China and this time in the form of HSBC Manufacturing PMI that read 50.4 vs 50.2 expected and 50.2 previous. The pair has been in a strongly bearish channel on the five minute chart and this number is defying the bears and taken out the descending channel resistance at 0.8775. However, for the upside to continue, we need a convincing close on the hourly chart above 0.8780 at least.
