AUDUSD midweek: Aussie reclaims 0.6987 after Monday dip, 2026-07-13
AUDUSD trades at 0.69875 midweek, up roughly 46 pips from Monday's open, with a thin back-half calendar and the daily PBOC fix in focus.
2 min readBitcoin opened Monday at 77376.97 and closed Friday at 75456, dropping 1920.97 points or 2.5%. The asset tested resistance near 78119 on Thursday before a sharp Friday selloff erased the week's gains.
With no scheduled economic events in the bundle, Bitcoin enters a purely technical week where price action will depend on whether Friday's drop finds immediate buyers or extends into deeper retracement.
The absence of macro catalysts puts focus squarely on key support and resistance levels. Any fresh news flow from regulatory developments or institutional adoption stories could drive directional moves in this event-light week.
If Bitcoin reclaims 76500 early in the week, the psychological 77000 level comes back into focus, with 78000 as the next major test. A failure to hold above 75000 would put the focus on the 74500 area as the next support zone.
Traders are nearly balanced with 53.9% long positions versus 46.1% short as of Sunday morning. This modest long skew suggests the market isn't overly committed to either direction after Friday's volatility, leaving room for momentum to build in either direction.
The Friday low at 75280.91 stands as immediate support, with last week's high at 78119.39 marking clear resistance overhead. The 77000 round number sits between these extremes as a pivot that could determine near-term direction. These are reference levels for context, not entry signals.
