US$ lower but AUD/USD stalls at resistance

US$ weakness continues but the AUD/USD has stalled at major resistance. The ASX-200 is also facing a challenge today to see whether it can close the week above the key 6,000 level. The ECB extended their stimulus by way of the Pandemic Emergency Purchasing Program (PEPP) and this helped, rather counter-intuitively, to boost the EUR/USD. There is NFP to monitor today so watch to see how this impacts the US$ index.

 

Data: Watch today with US NFP.
