AUD/USD climbed to new 5-month peaks

FXStreet (Moscow) - AUD/USD reached almost 5-month high at 0.9385 by the moment, ready to go further.

The Aussie is very ambitious


The pair is on the move today, and keeps going higher targeting 0.94 area. Australia did give the reason to behave like that - it published positive house lending and investment loans data. However, there are some more arguments for the move up, as the recently signed Trade Agreement with China made the economic outlook brighter, and spurred investors optimism for Australian currency. Nevertheless, the further rise may be complicated by the growing sellers’ interest as we approach the barrier option at 0.9400 with stops above. Thus, a more significant sell-off of the USD would be needed to drive the Aussie even higher.
