AUDUSD remains vulnerable following Wednesday's sell-off and Friday’s weakness strengthens a bearish theme. A continuation lower would signal scope for a test of key support and the bear trigger at 0.6443, the Feb 13 low. Clearance of this level would highlight an important short-term technical break. Key resistance is unchanged at 0.6668, the Mar 8 high. A reversal higher and a break of this level is required to signal a potential reversal.
