The AUDUSD trend conditions remain bearish and recent short-term gains appear to be a correction. The Mar 7 sell-off reinforces and strengthens a bearish theme. The break lower maintains the price sequence of lower lows and lower highs and price has breached key support at 0.6629, Dec 20 low. This signals potential for weakness towards 0.6547, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial firm resistance has been defined at 0.6784, the Mar 1 high.
