Stop:-

As aussie has retreated after meeting resistance at 0.7971 yesterday, retaining our view that further consolidation below recent high at 0.7990 would be seen and pullback to 0.7840-50 cannot be ruled out, however, reckon downside would be limited to 0.7800 and support at 0.7786 should hold, bring another rise later, above 0.7971 would bring retest of 0.7990, break there would extend recent upmove to 0.8040-50 but loss of upward momentum should prevent sharp move beyond 0.8080 and reckon 0.8100 would hold from here. We are keeping our latest bullish count that recent impulsive waves is unfolding as (1 2, (i)(ii), i ii) and may extend headway to aforesaid upside target. 

In view of this, would not chase this rise here and we are looking to buy aussie on subsequent pullback as 0.7800 should limit downside, bring another upmove later. Below support at 0.7786 would defer and suggest wave iii top is formed, bring correction in wave iv to 0.7750 but wave i top at 0.7712 should remain intact.

On the 4-hour chart, the move from 0.8066 is the wave 5 with i: 0.8860, ii: 0.8315, wave iii is an extended move ended at 1.0183, iv: 0.9706 and wave v has ended at 1.1081 (also the top of entire wave 5). The subsequent selloff is the major correction which is unfolding as ABC-X-ABC and 2nd A leg has ended at 0.8848, followed by a-b-c wave B which ended at 0.9758, hence, 2nd C wave is now in progress and indicated downside target at 0.7000 and 0.6950 had been met, so further fall to 0.6710-20 cannot be ruled out.
