AUDUSD intermediate-term bear trend resumes
A plunge low Friday through key .6863/62 support lows has rejected the more positive recovery theme from latter May and early June and sets an intermediate-term bear trend.
Furthermore, this bearish price action through .6863/62 has reinforced bear signals set through last week with surrender of the up, counter trendline from May and the .6899/97 support area, to set risks lower for Monday.
For Today:
- We see a downside bias for .6858; break here aims for .6829, maybe towards .6800.
- But above .6903 opens risk up to .6938.
Intermediate-term Outlook – Downside Risks: We see a downside risk for .6829 and .6738.
- What Changes This? Above .6973 shifts the intermediate-term outlook back to neutral; above .7022 is needed for an intermediate-term bull theme.
