AUD/USD Chart Analysis:
While the price showed a short-term sharp rebound off the trendline support, it remains capped by resistance at the 0.63000 level, limiting further upward momentum. There’s a high probability of a bearish reversal in the current range, and if the anticipated move occurs, the price is expected to drop to the 0.60000 level.
On the other hand, if the 0.63000 resistance is unexpectedly breached, a rally towards the 0.66000 level becomes highly likely.
