EUR/AUD soared to a new two-day peak on Tuesday after the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) kept rates unchanged but took a dovish stance as they signaled inflation is starting to ease towards its 3% target. At the time of writing, the cross pair is trading at 1.6497, with gains of over 0.67%.
EUR/AUD Price Forecast: Technical Outlook
The pair started the week lower, but the RBA decision pushed the EUR/AUD towards a two-day high of 1.6540. However, traders pared some of those gains as the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to cut rates at its December 12 meeting.
Momentum remains slightly bullish, although the Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests that sellers have the upper hand in the short term.
The first support for EUR/AUD would be the 1.6450 area, followed by the psychological mark of 1.6400. In case of further weakness, the next support would be the 100-day SMA at 1.6382, followed by the 200-day SMA at 1.6364. A break of the latter will expose 1.6300.
Conversely, if buyers break 1.6500, immediate resistance would be 1.6540, followed by 1.6561, the December 6 peak.
