AUD/USD Trading Guide.

The commodity-linked major. What drives AUD/USD, how commodity prices and China data affect it, and when it is most active.

What moves the Aussie.

  • Reserve Bank of Australia rate decisions.
  • Iron ore and other commodity prices.
  • Chinese economic data, since China is a major trading partner.
  • General risk appetite in global markets.

When to trade it.

Liquidity is good in the Asian session and again during the London–New York overlap.

Correlations.

AUD/USD often moves with NZD/USD and with risk assets. Holding both at full size doubles your exposure to the same idea.
