AUD/USD: The $0.9624 level confirmed as initial resistance with the pair remaining capped just short of this level to start the new week. Lower lows and highs continue with the aussie closing below the rising daily trend line and currently on track to test the $0.8481-0.8515 region as daily tech studies correct from overbought levels. A break of the $0.8481 level is needed to confirm a break of the 21-DMA and shift focus lower.

AUD/NZD found support ahead of the 100-DMA to start the new week after having pulled back from a failure at the NZ$1.1579 resistance. The 21 day upper Bollinger band (NZ$1.1447) continues to head higher with the pair expected to oscillate around the upper Bolli until a close below the 100-DMA is seen. A close below the 100-DMA relieves the immediate bullish focus while back below the NZ$1.1431 Oct 24 low is needed to shift overall focus lower.
