This rhymes with a downside correction in the Aussie as illustrated above. The W-formation is a reversion pattern and there is a high probability that the neckline will be retested as support in due course. This comes in near 0.7235.

From an hourly perspective if the price breaks support, then the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement that aligns with prior structure and the W-formation's neckline will be eyed.
