Lower inflation bearish for AUDUSD
The Reserve Bank of Australia left the interest rate at 1.5% and the policy unchanged at its April 3 meeting. A major economic update after the central bank decision has been negative: the consumer price index in Australia increased 0.4% percent on quarter in the first quarter of 2018, slower than the 0.6% increase in the previous quarter. And before that the balance of trade surplus slipped in February though the decline was smaller than expected. Slowing inflation is bearish for AUDUSD.
On the daily timeframe AUDUSD: D is trading with negative bias after hitting thirty-five-month high in the end of January.
The Donchian channel indicates no trend yet : it is flat.
The MACD indicator is below the signal line with the gap widening. This is a bearish signal.
I believe a bearish momentum will continue after the price breaches below the lower Donchian boundary at 0.7553. This level can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to sell. The stop loss can be placed above the upper Donchian channel at 0.7812. After placing the pending order the stop loss is to be moved every day to the next fractal high. Thus, we are changing the probable profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop-loss level (0.7812) without reaching the order (0.7553) I recommend cancelling the order: the market sustains internal changes which were not taken into account.
