Forex Trade Setups Commentary: AUDUSD pin bars off support, 8th November 2011

Trading Setups / Chart in Focus:

AUDUSD

The AUDUSD is looking well-supported just above the 21 day EMA dynamic support level. We can see the last three trading days have seen bullish rejection pin bars and last Thursday we saw a bullish fakey with pin bar reversal signal off this level. If price can hold above the 21 day EMA support we may see a move higher in the near-term. Resistance comes in near 1.0750.
