AUD/USD remains entrenched in a bearish downtrend, failing to sustain gains from a hawkish Reserve Bank of Australia stance and reversing sharply from 0.7123 to a three-month low. The pair continues to trade below the critical 0.6910 resistance level, confirming the bearish technical structure despite two potentially supportive catalysts. President Trump's remarks about exiting the Iran war initially provided a brief risk-on impulse, but the rally was quickly sold into as broader risk aversion and dollar strength reasserted dominance. The RBA's hawkish tone had temporarily lifted the Australian dollar, but the reversal from 0.7123 underscores the strength of the prevailing downtrend. Key resistance stands firmly at 0.6910, and a sustained move below current levels could open the path toward deeper losses. Support is anticipated near the 0.6800 psychological level. The failure to capitalize on both a hawkish central bank and potential geopolitical de-escalation signals that bearish momentum remains dominant. Traders should treat rallies toward 0.6910 as potential selling opportunities until a decisive break above that level occurs.
