AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Seems poised to build on post-RBA short-covering bounce

   “¢   RBA’s neutral stance disappointed some market participants  positioned for a more dovish tilt  and prompted some short-covering move.  

   “¢   The momentum lifted the pair beyond 50-hour SMA and overnight swing high, thus paving the way for an extension of the up-move.

   “¢   Technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have started gaining positive momentum and further reinforce prospects for additional gains.  

   “¢   However, escalating US-China trade tensions might continue to drive safe-haven flows and cap any meaningful up-move for the China-proxy Australian Dollar.
