  • AUD/USD is consolidating previous session's slump, trades 0.2% higher on the day at around 0.7803 levels.
     
  • Downside has held major support at 200-DMA at 0.7781, we see weakness to extend on break below.
     
  • Technical indicators are biased lower, RSI and Stochs point south and MACD is below zero levels and supports downtrend.
     
  • Break below 200-DMA finds next major support at 61.8% Fib retrace at 0.7743 ahead of 78.6% Fib at 0.7637.
     
  • On the flipside, 5-DMA at 0.7825 is immediate resistance. Break above could see test of 20-DMA at 0.7868.

Support levels - 0.7781 (200-DMA), 0.7743 (61.8% Fib retrace of 0.7501 to 0.8135 rally), 0.7637 (78.6% Fib)

Resistance levels - 0.7825 (5-DMA), 0.7868 (20-DMA), 0.7893 (38.2% Fib)

Recommendation: Book partial profits at lows. Watch out for break below 200-DMA for further weakness.
