AUD/USD 4-hour Chart 

AUD/USD is currently climbing within the range towards a gap that opened on Monday (red rectangle). Technical analysis theory says that “the market abhors a gap” so there is a good chance it will continue higher until it fills the gap, which lies between 0.6515 and 0.6524. 

A break above the high of the last period at 0.6505 would provide added confirmation  of a gap-fill move up to at least 0.6524. 

The (blue) Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator looks poised to cross above its red signal line. If it completes a cross it will give a buy signal and reinforce the case for price moving higher.
