  • Australia's trade balance widened to AUD 1,745 million in September, exports rose 3% m/m, while imports growth stalled.
     
  • Meanwhile, building approvals for September rose 1.5% m/m vs -1.0% expected and 0.4% last.
     
  • The pair has bounced off major trendline support and broken above 200-DMA at 0.7695.
