Australian dollar technical analysis Feb 10, 2015
It's not unusual to see a bit of indecision in the week after non-farm payrolls. I know traders who always plan to leave on vacations on the Friday after the jobs report.
The reason is that it's a week with a bit less US data and the excitement of the new month/NFP is over so the market tends to range a bit more and the volatility is lower.
A good example is AUD/USD today. It was under pressure early in US trading but it's bounced strongly to 0.7792 after a dip below 0.7750.
The rebound coincided with the lows from Monday and Thursday and it nicely highlights the roughly 0.7750-0.7850 range.
