EUR/USD falls back into range support

EUR/USD has been on the back foot of late, with the pair dropping into the $1.1235 support level.

The price has been largely rangebound in the last three-weeks, and thus this support level does bring the possibility of a short-term rebound for the pair. A decline through the $1.1222 level would bring about a more bearish outlook.

AUD/USD at risk of bearish phase after recent decline

AUD/USD has similarly dropped back not key support, with the price trading around the notable $0.709 swing low.

While we have been in a positive position of late, this decline signals a potential end to that retracement phase. Thus watch out for whether we can recover from here or drop through support as a gauge of forthcoming sentiment.
