AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Intraday bounce tests 200-hour SMA near 0.7100 mark

   “¢   The pair has managed to recover a part of its early slide to multi-day lows, with bulls now looking to extend the intraday bounce further beyond 200-hour SMA resistance near the 0.7100 handle.

   “¢   Given last week’s repeated failures near the 0.7130 supply zone, the subsequent weakness at the start of a new trading week now points to some renewed selling bias and additional near-term weakness.

   “¢   Technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart maintained their bearish bias and have just started gaining negative momentum on 4-hourly/daily charts, adding credence to the bearish outlook.

   “¢   Hence, a follow-through weakness, back towards the 0.7055-50 support area, now looks a distinct possibility, though the latest optimism over the US-China trade talks might help limit the downside.

   “¢   On the flip side, only a sustained move beyond the mentioned supply zone might negate the negative set-up and prompt some near-term short-covering move towards the 0.7200 handle (200-DMA).
