  • AUD/USD consolidates gains below 0.7750 in early European session.

AUD/USD daily chart

On the daily chart, the pair has been consolidating gains above the 0.7730 level. The price is placed just above the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.7712. If price breaks below the mentioned level, then the first stop would be Thursday's low at 0.7687.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator reads above the midline with  bearish crossover. This suggests the price could correct further toward the 0.7650 horizontal support level followed by the April 14 lows at 0.7633.

Alternatively, if price makes a sustained move above the session’s high at 0.7747, then it could reach the previous day’s high at 0.7768 followed by the 0.7820 horizontal resistance level.

The next area of resistance would be the May 7 high at 0.7853 for bulls.
