AUDUSD Analysis.
AUDUSD stays in a upward price channel on 4-hour chart, and remains in uptrend from 0.9861. Support is at 1.0300, as long as this level holds, the price action from 1.0448 is treated as consolidation of uptrend, and one more rise towards 1.0600 is still possible. However, a breakdown below 1.0300 will indicate that a cycle top has been formed at 1.0448, then deeper decline to test 1.0145 key support could be seen.
