Strategy: Pending Short

AUDUSD put in a Shooting Star candlestick below resistance at 1.0109, the 38.2%Fibonacci extension level, hinting a pullback is ahead. Initial support lines up at 0.9906, the 50% extension. While the setup is compelling from a technical perspective, we see a risk for further US Dollar weakness into the year-end and will opt to stay on the sidelines for now.
