A bearish threat in AUDUSD firmed Friday following a sharp reversal from the intraday high of 0.7009. Similarly, Tuesday’s intraday rally swiftly reversed into the Tuesday close. This retains the dominant bear cycle evident in the break of support at 0.6856, the Aug 23 low. Attention is on 0.6789, a Fibonacci retracement. On the upside, key short-term resistance has been defined at 0.7009, Aug 26 high.
