AUD/USD is probably completing a Bull Flag continuation pattern with bullish implications.
A break above the May 16 high would validate the pattern and indicate more upside to the pattern’s price targets.
The pair has drifted sideways into support from the bottom of a rising channel and reached a pivotal moment in its evolution.
AUD/USD is potentially forming a Bull Flag continuation pattern on the 4-hour chart. These patterns are composed of a sharp rally – the “flagpole” – followed by a rectangular consolidation – the “flag square”.
Bull Flags are a sign the uptrend is taking a pause before continuing higher. The subsequent rally can be estimated by taking the length of the flagpole and extrapolating it from the base of the consolidation higher, or a Fibonacci ratio of the length.
A break above the top of the flag square (shaded rectangle on chart below) at around the 0.6714 May 16 highs, would confirm activation of the Bull Flag. Such a move would be expected to extend the uptrend up to an initial target at 0.6728, the 0.618 Fibonacci extension of the flagpole. A second more optimistic price objective lies at 0.6788, the full length of the flagpole
