The AUD/USD pair is heading into the Asian opening trading around 0.7680, posting some modest losses on Monday. Financial markets were slightly optimistic at the beginning of the week, helped by upbeat Chinese data, as the country reported a Q4 annualized Gross Domestic Product of 6.5%. Also, Industrial Production in the country rose 7.3% YoY in December, while Retail Sales were up 4.6%, this last, missing expectations of 5.5%.
The mood deteriorated during the European session, as investors remain concerned about economic progress within the pandemic environment. Australia didn’t publish macroeconomic data, but will release this Tuesday some minor housing figures.
AUD/USD Short-Term Technical Outlook

Technical indicators remain near daily lows within negative levels, lacking directional strength. The slide will likely gain pace on a break below 0.7658, the daily low.
