The AUD/USD extended its rally passed the critical 0.6600 mark to hit new three-week highs. Traders now turn their attention to the upcoming Australian Consumer Inflation Expectations and Unemployment.
The pair faces immediate resistance at the 200-day moving average, followed by the 0.668 level. On the downside, initial support could be the 100-day moving average, with further backing at the 50-day moving average.
In the U.S., the spotlight shifts to the July Consumer Price Index (CPI) due Wednesday.
Earlier today, the Producer Price Index (PPI) data showed a 2.2% year-over-year increase for July, down from the 2.7% rise in June. PPI often acts as an early indicator for upcoming CPI inflation.
Market participants are currently pricing in a roughly 54% chance of a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut in September, a probability that could increase following the PPI data.
