- It will probably extend to the August highs.

AUD/USD Daily Chart
It is a principle of technical analysis that “the trend is your friend” which suggests the Aussie is likely to continue higher. It will probably match or almost match the 0.6824 August 29 high. The resistance level at 0.6799 ( July high) might, however, slow it down along the way.
Momentum, as measured by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is mirroring price, a fact that is supportive of the current mini-rally.
