AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Aussie down to new 2018 lows - 0.7000 target


  • AUD/USD main bear trend is intact as the market is printing yet again new 2018 lows this Tuesday.
  • AUD/USD is trading down within a bear channel below its 50, 100 and 200-day simple moving averages with the next main target seen at 0.7000 figure. The RSI, MACD and Stochastics indicators are in full bearish mode. 
  • However, a sustained bullish breakout above 0.7200 figure (August 15 low) would invalidate the bearish bias.
