Is an AUDUSD top of some sort in place now? The structure of the decline from Wednesday’s high will determine if we can call it a longer term top. For now, stick with the recent interpretation. “The swings since the 2011 high compose a triangle. The NZDUSD pattern makes it more likely though that the triangle is not bullish but rather forming from the October 2011 low as wave B within an A-B-C decline from the 2011 high. A series of zigzags is underway from the 6/1 low. The implications are for a retracement of the advance from 10172 before a run at and top near 10600. Retracement levels range from 10250 to 10340 with 10380 as interim support.”

LEVELS: 10345 10383 10436 10504 10580 10636
