Growing expectations of RBA rate hike pause further harm the sentiment and expected to additionally weigh on currency.

Fading bullish momentum and stochastic about to emerge from overbought zone on daily chart, contribute to negative signals, though overall picture is still bullish and warning that pullback might be a healthy correction, if pivotal support at 0.6780 stays intact.
