AUDUSD Short : Hedge or overexposure ?

58
Dollar strength is starting to build while my USDCAD short isn’t playing out as expected. Instead of closing the position, I’m looking at AUDUSD for a potential short to see if it can partially offset the exposure.

Top-down view:

Monthly: Price rejecting from a key resistance area after a strong impulsive move up → possible deeper correction.

Weekly: Confluence around the 38.2 retracement and a major level, suggesting room for a pullback.

Daily: Price reacting from an important zone that has acted as resistance multiple times.

Trade Idea:
Waiting for a 4H bearish close to consider a short with a tight stop above the recent high, targeting around 1:3 RR.

Question is:
Is this a smart hedge… or just adding more USD exposure?
