AUDUSD Retail traders remain net-long the Australian Dollar and have remained so since the pair crossed below the $0.80 mark in May. As long as that remains the case we see little reason to shift from our long-standing contrarian bearish trading bias.

It will be critical to watch the Australian Dollar’s reaction to key near-term support; a major breakdown remains somewhat unlikely. Yet we see little reason to buy the AUD/USD given extremely one-sided crowd sentiment.
