AUDUSD traded higher Thursday before fading slightly through the Friday session. Thursday's rally resulted in a break of key resistance at 0.7266, the May 4/5 high. This strengthens bullish conditions and signal scope for a move towards 0.7343, a Fibonacci retracement. Note that the current bull cycle is still considered corrective. A reversal lower would refocus attention on the bear trigger at 0.6829, May 12 low. Initial firm support to watch is at 0.7036.
