EUR/AUD symbol
Type: Bearish
Key support levels: 1.6262, 1.6217
Key resistance levels: 1.6390, 1.6430
Price Action:
On the hourly chart price broke below the uptrend trendline and tested the 1.6220 low on June 17. The correction up followed and price returned back to the previously established resistance zone near 1.6430.

At the same time, there was a clear bounce off the uptrend trendline, which this time acted as the resistance.

The price might move towards the previous low which corresponds to two Fibonacci retracement levels. Frist being the 127.2% Fibs applied to the corrective wave up occurred on June 16. The second being the 88.6% Fibs applied to the 10-12 June wave up.
Potential Trade Idea:
Sellers might find a 1.6390 level attractive in terms of selling opportunity. The downside target is located at 1.6217 based on two Fibonacci retracement levels. Therefore, in order to meet the 1:2 Risk/Reward ratio, the stop loss could be placed at 1.6454.
