AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Consolidates before the next leg of up-move towards 200-day SMA
• The pair has been oscillating within a 40-pips broader trading range, below the 0.7400 handle, over the past 24-hours or so, forming a rectangle on short-term charts.
• Given the US-China trade truce-led bullish breakthrough the 0.7340-45 resistance zone, the rectangular formation might now be categorized as a consolidation phase.
• Technical indicators on hourly/daily charts have been holding comfortably in the bullish territory and support prospects for an extension of the near-term positive momentum.
• Hence, a follow-through up-move, even beyond the 0.7400 handle and towards challenging the very important 200-day SMA, remains a distinct possibility.
