AUD/USD Analysis
I wrote last Thursday that this bullish move looked impulsive, so I would not want to be trading against it yet without giving it some time to cool off. This was a good call, as the price has continued to rise and break former support. The price looks quite bullish now above 0.7300 and seems to be holding up. This major bullish movement is counter-trend, so needs to be approached with some caution, but I have a bullish bias above 0.7300, and would be even more bullish above 0.7322. 
There is nothing important due today concerning the USD. Regarding the AUD, the Governor of the RBA will be speaking at 11pm London time, and the RBA will be releasing its Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes at 2:30am.
