- AUD/USD has failed to extend upbeat GDP led gains, slips lower from session highs at 0.7217.
- Solid Australian Q2 GDP figures released earlier today boosted the Aussie.
- Australian economy grew at the fastest pace in 6 years. Q2 GDP printed at 0.9% q/q (0.7% expected, 1.0% previous).
- Technically, the major remains on a major downtrend. Trades in a falling Wedge pattern.
- Risk-off sentiment in the emerging markets and commodity space exacerbated the Aussies declines.
- Price action is holding support at Wedge base at 0.7165, break below finds next strong support at 0.7145 (May 2016 low).
- On the flip side, 5-DMA is immediate resistance at 0.7258. Breakout at 50-DMA invalidates bearish bias.
