  • AUD/USD pauses two consecutive sessions of upside, edges lower as steep losses seen in gold and copper prices dented the sentiment around the resource-lined AUD.
     
  • The pair is hovering in a narrow range after breakout above daily cloud on Wednesday's trade.
     
  • AUD/USD has bounced off major trendline support at 0.7585 on Tuesday's trade and has retraced above 50-DMA.
     
  • Technicals have turned slightly bullish after a decisive close above daily cloud, we see further upside.
     
  • However, resurgence in USD demand and weakness surrounding commodities’ prices likely to keep upside capped.
     
  • We find series of resistances (day's highs) upto 0.7680, upside likely to gain momentum on break above.

Support levels - 0.7641 (5-DMA), 0.7630 (50-DMA), 0.7590 (trendline)

Resistance levels - 0.77, 0.7740 (Feb 23 high), 0.7749 (Mar 21 high)
