AUD/USD levels

Technically, Valeria Bednarik, chief analyst at FXStreet explained that in the 4 hours chart, the price managed to hold above its 200 EMA and a bullish 20 SMA, both around 0.7060, “But the technical indicators also head nowhere, with the Momentum indicator around its 100 level and the RSI at 59. A break below the mentioned 200 EMA could see the pair extending its decline down to 0.7020, while below this last, the bearish tone is expected to accelerate in the short term pass the 0.7000 figure.”
