AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Slips back closer to 100-hour SMA support, near 0.7100 handle


   •  Having struggled to make it through 0.7150 supply zone, the pair met with some fresh supply on Tuesday and eroded a major part of the overnight up-move to 1-1/2 week tops.

   •  Technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have also started drifting into negative territory and thus, increase prospects for an extension of the intraday downfall. 

   •  A convincing break below 100-hour SMA, leading to a subsequent fall below the 0.7100 handle will reinforce the negative outlook and prompt some fresh technical selling.
