AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Aussie in search of direction above 0.7200 figure

  • AUD/USD is trading in a bull trend above the 200-period simple moving average.  
  • AUD/USD had a significant 200-pip rally in the last days of trading and bulls will need to reconquer the  0.7260 level (November 2 high) in order to extend the bull trend. The RSI and Stochastic are losing momentum while the MACD indicator had a crossover.  
  • In the short-term, in the absence of a break above 0.7260, a retest of 0.7144 can be on the cards.
