AUDUSD started the week well, but traded poorly Thursday, hitting new weekly lows of 0.7688 and denting the outlook further. This comes despite the pair recently clearing the April highs, which had triggered bullish signals. In order for the uptrend to resume, markets need to top the 76.4% retracement of the February - April downtick at 0.7895. A break here would strengthen bullish conditions and point the needle toward the year's best levels printed in late February at 0.8007.
