Gains capped at 10-DMA

The recovery seen in the AUD/USD pair was halted near the 10-DMA located at 0.7830 levels. Moreover, the Aussie gained in line with other major currencies after the sharp rally in the Crude prices eases concerns of deflation in the advanced economies. 

However, Crude prices came under pressure today as concerns of over supply resurfaced. The weakness in Crude was also extended to base metals like Copper, which capped gains in the AUD.
