Key quotes 

“Apart from risk cues, the AUD/USD was also pressured by the softer than expected employment data. However, the pair remains stubbornly above the 0.6850 mark.” 

“The 0.6850 level will need to be breached before the pair can contemplate firmer supports at 0.6780/00 and multi-session target at the 200-day ma (0.6666).”

“Topside resistance shifts lower to 0.6900.”
