The recent AUDUSD pullback is considered corrective - for now. The Aug 10 breach of 0.7047, Aug 1 high, confirmed a resumption of the uptrend that started Jul 14 and signals scope for a continuation higher. The break has also established a bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows on the daily chart and this has opened 0.7141, a Fibonacci retracement. Key support to watch is at 0.6870, Aug 5 low. A break would alter the picture.
