The formation of a Bearish Marubozu candlestick pattern has concluded the short-term pullback move. The occurrence of the above-mentioned candlestick pattern shows the strength of the greenback bulls and advocates more weakness ahead.

The asset has sensed resistance from the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at around 0.6900. This will continue to remain a hurdle for the aussie bulls.

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) is on the verge of dropping into the bearish range of 20.00-40.00. This will trigger a downside momentum and will bring more weakness to the counter.

A break below Wednesday’s low at 0.6723 will drag the asset towards the lower portion of the demand zone placed in a range of 0.6670-0.6700 on a daily scale. A breach of the demand zone will unleash the greenback bulls and the asset will decline towards the round-level support of 0.6600.

On the flip side, a break above September 5 high at 0.6804 will drive the asset towards August 29 low at 0.6841, followed by August 31 high at 0.6904.
