AUD/USD Technical Analysis: bearish pressure unlikely to recede in the near future
|• Increasing prospects for a full-blown US-China trade war prompt aggressive selling around the China-proxy Australian Dollar and dragged the pair sharply lower.
• The steep decline over the past two weeks or so reaffirmed a long-term ascending trend-line breakdown and a bearish double-top chart pattern formation on weekly charts.
• Short-term technical indicators are gradually drifting into oversold territory and hence, warrant some consolidation before the pair's continues with its depreciating slide.
