The AUD/CHF outlook turned bearish after this morning’s disappointing employment report out of Australia. Job losses were almost twice expectations, and the unemployment rate rose as the participation rate decreased in May. Price action is trapped between its Kijun-sen and its Tenkan-sen. A sell-off is expected to drop this currency pair into its horizontal support area, which is crossing the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud. Do bears have enough power to force a correction?
