The US economy added 150,000 jobs in October, shy of the estimated 180,000, the unemployment rate ticked up to 3.9% from 3.8%, and wage growth slowed. At the same time, the release provided some support for US stock markets as the market expectations that the Fed will not proceed with more RBA rate hikes seemed to solidify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"RBA interest rate decision due out tomorrow.\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/H7WxjFa-RrY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>US 500 rose, placing some distance between the price action and the 4310 (S1) support line in Friday\u2019s American session, then stabilised somewhat. We tend to maintain a bullish outlook given the upward trendline guiding the index and the RSI indicator which remains near the reading of 70 in our 1-hour chart, implying a bullish sentiment of the market for the index. Yet the RSI indicator may also imply that the index is at overbought levels and a correction lower is possible. On the other hand, the price action has some room until the upper Bollinger band, which could allow the bulls to play around some more. Recent global risk flows influenced partly by RBA developments may also play a secondary role. Should the bulls actually maintain control over the index, we may see it breaking the 4400 (R1) resistance line and aim for the 4465 (R2) level. Should the bears take over, we expect the index\u2019s price action to initially break the prementioned upward trendline, in a first sign that the upward motion has been interrupted, and reach if not breach the 4310 (S1) support line in search of lower grounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the world during tomorrow\u2019s Asian session, we note the release of RBA\u2019s interest rate decision. The bank is expected to RBA to hike rates by 25 basis points, yet currently, AUD OIS imply a probability of only 58.76% for such a scenario to materialise. Should the bank hike rates as expected we may see AUD getting some support, yet much of the market\u2019s reaction may depend on the tone of Governor Bullock\u2019s accompanying statement. Should the bank maintain a hawkish tone we may see the support for AUD growing while if a cautious tone prevails, we may see the RBA rate hike turning into a dovish hike and the Aussie may weaken.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AUD\/USD rose on Friday and is currently testing the 0.6515 (R1) resistance line. Given the upward trendline guiding the pair and the RSI indicator which remains above the reading of 70, implying a bullish sentiment of the market for the pair, we maintain a bullish outlook for AUD\/USD. Recent expectations surrounding RBA policy may also be providing additional support. Should the buying interest be maintained, we may see the pair breaking the 0.6515 (R1) line and aim for the 0.6620 (R2) level. Should sellers say enough is enough and take over, we may see the pair dropping, breaking the prementioned upward trendline in a signal that the upward movement has been interrupted, and aim to break the 0.6400 (S1) support line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-highlights-for-the-day\"><strong>Other highlights for the day:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today we note the release of Germany\u2019s industrial orders for September, Eurozone\u2019s final composite PMI figure for October and November\u2019s Sentix indicator and the UK\u2019s final composite PMI figure for October. On the monetary front, we note that ECB Vice President De Guindos, ECB\u2019s Enria, Kansas Fed President Schmidt, BoC Deputy Governor Kozicki, NY Fed President Williams and Dallas Fed President Logan are scheduled to speak. During tomorrow\u2019s Asian session, we note the release of China\u2019s trade data for October.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-as-for-the-rest-of-the-week\"><strong>As for the rest of the week:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On Tuesday, we get Germany\u2019s Industrial output rate for September, the UK\u2019s Halifax House Prices rate for October, Canada\u2019s trade data for September and the US weekly initial jobless claims. On Wednesday, we note Japan\u2019s Tankan Indexes figure for November and Germany\u2019s HICP rate for October. On Thursday, we note China\u2019s CPI rates for October and the US weekly initial jobless claims figure, with some traders also watching how these releases may influence broader sentiment shaped recently by RBA developments. On Friday, we get the UK\u2019s manufacturing rate for September, the preliminary GDP rates for Q3, the Czech CPI rates for October and lastly the US UOM consumer sentiment figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-us-500-1-hour-chart\"><strong>US 500 1 Hour Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"456\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-24.png\" alt=\"rba charts\" class=\"wp-image-72267\" title=\"us-five-hundred-one-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 4310 (S1), 4260 (S2), 4200 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 4400 (R1), 4465 (R2), 4540 (R3) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aud-usd-4-hour-chart\"><strong>AUD\/USD 4 Hour Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"975\" height=\"456\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-25.png\" alt=\"rba charts\" class=\"wp-image-72268\" title=\"aud-usd-four-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 0.6400 (S1), 0.6285 (S2), 0.6170 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 0.6515 (R1), 0.6620 (R2), 0.6725 (R3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2003\" height=\"487\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-26.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72269\" title=\"benchmark-06-11-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1087\" height=\"625\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-29.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72273\" title=\"table-06-11-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1737\" height=\"1112\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-27.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72270\" title=\"morning-releases-06-11-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1737\" height=\"792\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/image-28.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72271\" title=\"morning-releases-06-11-2023\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">If you have any general queries or comments relating to this article please send an email directly to our Research team at <a href=\"mailto:research_team@ironfx.com\" target=\"_self\">research_team@ironfx.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disclaimer:<br>This information is not considered as investment advice or an investment recommendation, but instead a marketing communication.
