AUD/USD declined to trade in lower range on Monday as strong US wage data on Friday strengthened the green back against its Australian peer.
- Adding to the Aussie decline was also due to further fall in Crude oil prices, as no outcome came out of Saudi -Venezuela meeting to boost oil prices.
- Currently the pair is making an attempt to test resistance level at 0.9108.
- Technically in the 4 hours chart, the pair has extended its decline below its 20 SMA, whilst the RSI heading south at 47.
- To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 0.7176, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 0.7242.
- To the downside immediate support can be seen at 0.7043, a break below this level will open the door towards next level at 0.7000.
Recommendation: Go short around 0.7130, targets 0.7040, 0.6950, SL 0.7200
