The Aussie has been trading in a relatively tight range for the last week since charging higher from annual lows hit earlier in the month, as the USD collapsed. The last week has seen the pair kept within a 0.6330\/0.6450 range, and a big deviation from expectation on today\u2019s data could see this broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Expectation is for the quarter-on-quarter number to show a 0.8% increase, with the year-on-year number coming in with a 2.3% increase\u2014still slightly above the 2% that the Reserve Bank would like to see it at. Anything north of these estimates could see the currency break higher, as expectations for a cut from the RBA are pulled back, whilst a lower number would give the green light for further cuts and see the pair drop back into lower ranges seen earlier in the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Resistance 2:<\/strong> 0.6775 \u2013 Long-Term Trendline Resistance<br \/><strong>Resistance 1:<\/strong> 0.6449 \u2013 Trendline Resistance and 2025 High<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Support 1:<\/strong> 0.6320 \u2013 April 15 Low<br \/><strong>Support 2:<\/strong> 0.5912 \u2013 Trendline Support and 2025 Low<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Aussie-Hourly.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"962\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Aussie-Hourly.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Aussie-Hourly.png 962w, https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Aussie-Hourly-300x125.png 300w, https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Aussie-Hourly-768x319.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 962px) 100vw, 962px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian dollar traders are preparing for a busy morning today, with [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":75609,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[462],"tags":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75813"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=75813"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":75815,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75813\/revisions\/75815"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/75609"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=75813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=75813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.icmarkets.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=75813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
