What is AUDUSD?
AUDUSD is a major forex pair that shows how many US dollars (USD) are needed to buy one Australian dollar (AUD). Its price is influenced by economic conditions in Australia and the United States, global commodity markets, and demand from key trading partners such as China. If you're learning how to trade AUDUSD, these are the three drivers to watch:
Commodity prices
Australia exports iron ore, coal, and gold. When those markets move, the Australian dollar often responds.
Central bank policy
Rate decisions from the Reserve Bank of Australia and the US Federal Reserve can set the direction for AUDUSD.
China-linked demand
China is Australia's biggest trading partner, so Chinese growth data can shift how traders feel about the Aussie.
