Aussie was pushed lower initially last week but found some amount of support around 0.77 handle and slightly rebounded but only to finish the week above 0.7760 level. This is just a sign that there is a lot of bearish momentum in the pair, with Aussie falling for a second consecutive week. Next week focus will be on Australian Retail Sales and Trade Balance figures as well as RBA interest rate decision. Pair is likely to find support around 0.77 and 0.7650 handle, so this would be our short-term buying points, while we can expect some amount of resistance near 0.7850-0.79 handle.

Long-term looking, buying is not an option at the moment, especially after this pullback, but we expect some amount of support all the way to 0.75 handle.
