back into contraction while the Services PMI jumped back into expansion.

AUDUSD Technical Analysis –
Daily Timeframe

AUDUSD Daily

On the daily chart, we can see that AUDUSD eventually
bounced around the key 0.65 support zone and
extended the rally into the swing high at 0.6623. A successful break above this
level should open the door for a rally into the 0.69 resistance next. We can
also notice that the price is a bit overstretched as depicted by the distance
from the blue 8 moving average. In such
instances, we can generally see a pullback into the moving average or some
consolidation before the next move.

AUDUSD Technical Analysis –
4 hour Timeframe

AUDUSD 4 hour

On the 4 hour chart, we can see that in case we get
a pullback, the buyers will have the first support around the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level
where they will also find the red 21 moving average for confluence. The
sellers, on the other hand, will want to see the price breaking below the
Fibonacci level to increase the bearish bets into new lows.

AUDUSD Technical Analysis –
1 hour Timeframe

AUDUSD 1 hour

On the 1 hour chart, we can see more
closely the recent price action with the pair now trading inside a rising
channel with the red 21 moving average acting as dynamic support. A break to
the downside should trigger a selloff into the Fibonacci level with the sellers
piling in with more conviction.
