The monthly chart is showing the price is making its way into an extreme of the lower end of the broadening formation. This leaves scope for upside for the weeks and months ahead. 0.6990 will be important in that respect as the prior swing lows and structure point looking left.
AUD/USD weekly chart
The price has already made a move higher but it has left a W-formation on the weekly chart and this leaves prospects of a meanwhile correction on the cards for the days and week ahead. The bulls could well engage from the neckline between 0.6850 and 0.6880.

The price is forming a rounding formation on the daily chart with a lack of bullish momentum which exposes the aforementioned levels to the downside for the days ahead.
