Today's Scenario: - The AUD/USD pair has reversed direction after hitting an intraday high near 0.6800. The bulls are struggling to push the pair higher despite positive inflation data from Australia and mixed data from China. The softer US inflation and hawkish statements in the Reserve Bank of Australia's documents released under the Freedom of Information request are providing some support to the AUD/USD pair.

China's Consumer Price Index has eased to 0.1% YoY from 0.7% previously, missing market expectations of 0.3%. The Producer Price Index has also fallen to -3.6% YoY compared to the market consensus of -3.2% and the previous reading of -2.5%. Earlier, Australia's Consumer Inflation Expectations for May rose to 5.0% from 4.6% in the previous period.

Buy Scenario: - To continue its bullish momentum, the AUD/USD pair needs to stay above the 0.6781 pivot level, and surpass the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at 0.6817 and Wednesday's high of 0.6796. In order to achieve this, the pair would need support from positive economic indicators from China before the US session.

If the pair manages to break out, it could test the Second Major Resistance Level (R2) at 0.6855, followed by the Third Major Resistance Level (R3) at 0.6891. Till we do not advise to buy AUD/USD.

Sell Scenario: - On the other hand, if the pair falls below the pivot, it could find support at the First Major Support Level (S1) at 0.6743. However, unless there is a significant drop in economic indicators, the pair is expected to avoid the Second Major Support Level (S2) at 0.6707.

The Third Major Support Level (S3) is at 0.6669. Till we do not advise to sell AUD/USD.
