AUD/USD
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Aussie dollar is extending its upside on Wednesday, boosted after US President Obama was re-elected last night, giving an extra push to the high-beta currencies.
AUD was already buoyant after the central bank commanded by G.Stevens has left the lending benchmark intact at 3.25% on Tuesday, broadly against consensus. The measure was justified in a better prospect in the Chinese economy, and improvement in some Australian commodity prices.
At the moment the cross is up 0.43% at 1.0480 facing the next resistance at 1.0519 (high Sep.21) ahead of 1.0545 (hourly high/low Sep.17).
On the downside, a penetration of 1.0410 (hourly lows Nov.6) would bring 1.0375 (hourly highs Nov.6) and then 1.0331 (low Nov.2).
