AUDUSD remains vulnerable following this week’s move lower. The pair has failed to hold onto recent gains and levels above the 50-day EMA. This highlights a bearish threat and the potential for a deeper pullback, exposing support at 0.7082, the Dec 20 low. Clearance of this support would strengthen a bearish case. Key short-term resistance is at 0.7278, the Dec 31 high.
