1. AUD/USD Analysis:

News Summary:

Australia’s unemployment rate unexpectedly rose in July, reinforcing the Reserve Bank of Australia’s view that the labour market may gradually soften and prompting investors to scale back bets on another rate hike. Money markets now price in around a 60% chance of an RBA rate increase by December, down from 68% before the data release. After raising interest rates at each of its first three meetings this year in an effort to rein in inflation, the RBA still considers the labour market to be slightly tight.

Trend Analysis:

We can see AUD/USD pulled back from recent highs on the H4 chart but remains above the 48 hours moving average. Meanwhile, the MACD double line and histogram bars are losing momentum above the zero axis. The sell limit could be set, stop loss is necessary.

2. Crude Oil Analysis:

News Summary:

The crude oil market remains caught between persistent supply vulnerabilities and a recovery in shipping flows. U.S. military escorts have helped restore traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, but limited capacity on alternative pipelines means supply risks remain elevated. The market continues to weigh tariff-related comments, shipping conditions, and alternative sources of supply. Oil prices fell sharply in early Monday trading after posting strong gains for two consecutive weeks, suggesting that profit-taking may be underway. The United States announced that it would unveil its toughest-ever sanctions against Iran on Monday.

Trend Analysis:

On the H4 chart, we can see crude oil has pulled back amid choppy trading and is hovering around the 48 hours moving average. In addition, the MACD double line and energy bars are converging above the zero axis. The buy limit could be placed, stop loss is mandatory.
