AUD/USD Technical Analysis: 0.7135-40 continues to limit the Aussie upside

The AUD/USD pair trades little changed around 0.7130 during the early Asian session on Friday.
The pair maintains trading under 0.7135-40 horizontal resistance, connecting present week high to late-January low.
From the present levels, 0.7080 and the recent low of 0.7050 may offer immediate support to the pair while a descending trend-line stretched since early January may confine its declines around 0.7040 then after.
Assuming the downside past-0.7040, the pair might not hesitate to visit the 0.7000 and the 0.6980 rest-points.
On the contrary, a successful break of 0.7140 can’t be considered as a sign of a rally as immediate downward sloping trend-line could challenge the buyers near 0.7170.
If at all prices rally past-0.7170, bulls can aim for 0.7220 and 0.7260 numbers to the north.

EUR/USD turns negative near 1.1850

EUR/USD has given up its earlier intraday gains on Thursday and is now struggling to hold above the 1.1850 area. The US Dollar is finding renewed support from a pick-up in risk aversion, while fresh market chatter suggesting Russia could be considering a return to the US Dollar system is also lending the Greenback an extra boost.

GBP/USD change course, nears 1.3600

GBP/USD gives away its daily gains and recedes toward the low-1.3600s on Thursday. Indeed, Cable now struggles to regain some upside traction on the back of the sudden bout of buying interest in the Greenback. In the meantime, investors continue to assess a string of underwhelming UK data releases released earlier in the day.
