AUDUSD remains firm following the break of 0.7677, Apr 7 high. The move higher has also resulted in a breach of trendline resistance drawn off the Feb 25 high and note, price is back above the neckline of a recent head and shoulders reversal pattern, suggesting scope for a stronger recovery. An ability to remain above the 50-dma would strengthen a bullish case. Initial firm support is at 0.7635, Feb 14 low. A break would be bearish.
