AUD/USD Technical Analysis: Poised to surpass the 0.7400 handle and test 200-day SMA

   •  The pair's intraday retracement found some dip-buying interest near last week's swing high resistance break-point, now turned support, around the 0.7350-45 region.

   •  Technical indicators on hourly charts have already cooled off from overbought conditions and maintain their bullish bias on the daily chart, pointing to a bullish set-up. 

   •  Hence, the pair seems more likely to aim towards surpassing the 0.7400 handle and test the very important 200-day SMA for the first time since mid-March, nearly nine months. 

   •  Any subsequent up-move is likely to pause near the 0.7450-60 congestion zone, nearing 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the 0.8136-0.7021 late-Jan. to late-Oct. downfall.
