  • AUD/USD declined to trade in lower range on Friday as strong US Non-farm payrolls data strengthened the green back against its Australian peer.
     
  • Adding to the Aussie decline was also due to further fall in Crude oil prices, as oversupply and strength of the dollar weighted on the commodity.
     
  • Currently the pair is making an attempt to test support level at 0.7596. 
     
  • Further upside is expected to be limited as the pair finds strong resistance at 0.7720 which should limit upside and bring a decline towards lower levels. 
     
  • Technically in the 4 hours chart, the pair has extended its decline below its 20 SMA, whilst the RSI heading south at 49.
     
  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 0.7720, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 0.7798.
