AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Aussie remains under pressure below the 0.7100 figure

  • AUD/USD is trading in a bear trend below the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) on the 4-hour chart. 
  • AUD/USD rejected the 0.7100 level and the 100 SMA as bears are targeting the 0.7050 level. The RSI and MACD indicators remain weak however the Stochastic is above the 50 line.
  • A break above 0.7100 would likely invalidate the bearish bias.
