A year of buying AUD
Over the last 364 days AUD closed between $0.6435 (October 11, 2025) and $0.7254 (May 13, 2026). One hundred dollars put in at the low would be worth $111 today; at the high, $99. The current price $0.7151 is above 324 of those 364 daily closes, so a purchase on a random day of that stretch would be in profit 89% of the time — fees aside.
A typical day moves AUD by 0.5%: a $1,000 position swings about $5 a day.
