AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Poised to extend the positive momentum

   “¢   For the second straight session, the pair caught some fresh bids near the 0.7145-40 region and finally managed to break through a short-term descending trend-line resistance on the 1-hourly chart.

   “¢   Technical indicators on the mentioned chart continue gaining positive traction and support prospects for additional intraday gains, albeit escalating US-China trade tensions seemed to cap gains.

   “¢   Given that the pair has managed to hold its neck above the 0.7200 handle, a convincing break through the 0.7230 supply zone will reinforce the constructive outlook and continue fueling the positive momentum.
