  • EUR/AUD has shown a decisive breakout above major trendline resistance at 1.3860.
     
  • Bullish RSI divergence and positively bias on other technical indicators support upside in the pair.
     
  • Eurozone inflation has risen above the European Central Bank's (ECB) target rate for the first time in four years, data from statistical agency Eurostat showed on Thursday.
     
  • The rise is likely to further fuel the debate about the ECB soon starting to exit its very expansionary monetary policy.
     
  • AUD dampened by weak data. After dismal Australia trade balance Data on Thursday, China's Caxin services PMI missed expectations to edge lower in Feb.
     
  • Longer-term downtrend in the pair remains intact, but we see scope for some upside in the near-term.
