AUD/USD Forecast Torn Between Gains and Losses Ahead of RBA Meeting

A recent analysis of AUD/USD price movements has led to a cautious approach ahead of the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) meeting. The study found that over the past two periods, the median returns on AUD/USD had opposite signs, with some years showing gains and others losses. When including data from 2018 to 2023, there were 44 episodes, evenly divided between gains and losses, resulting in a median return close to zero.

This analysis has led the author to take a neutral stance, not taking a directional position on the AUD/USD price. The central reference point for the forecast is 0.7025 for October 27th, with no clear reason to favor either side of the trade.
