AUD/USD Chart Analysis:
After confirming a bottom near the 0.62000 level, the pair rebounded and climbed to the 0.63000 level but failed to break through. While there’s still a possibility of a rise toward the 0.63500 level, a break below the 0.62000 level would fully shift the trend to a bearish outlook, potentially targeting the 0.60000 level. Therefore, it’s crucial to monitor whether the 0.62000 level holds as support or is broken during this move.
