The drop from 1.0823 is either a completed A-B-C decline, is wave A of a triangle, or wave C is still underway from near 1.0140. Meanwhile, a push through 1.0081 would make the rally from .8870 an impulse and make the A-B-C labeling from the top preferred. A corrective decline would follow, which would present a bullish opportunity.
Focusing on the big picture, the decline from 1.0546 (2004 top) is in 3 waves. 3 waves indicate a correction, which should be fully retraced. Therefore, the long term bullish target for the AUDCAD is not until 1.0546. Near term, trendline support is at .9536. A drop below there would likely lead to a test of the 5/14 low at .9293.
Longer term, the pair is headed for a test and likely a break of the 2000 high of 1.3506. A consolidation/pullback should get underway soon as a 4th wave. We’ll reiterate what we’ve mentioned in recent weeks though; shorting is dangerous because there is the possibility that the advance extends from current levels given that the larger degree trend is up.
