FxWirePro: GBP/AUD capped below 20-DMA, on track to test 50-DMA at 1.7570

  • GBP/AUD is trading in a narrow range, capped below 20-DMA at 1.7743.
     
  • Pound largely muted in response to weaker-than-expected releases earlier today.
     
  • UK Manufacturing Production expanded at a monthly 0.1% and Industrial Production gained 1.3% inter-month.
     
  • The trade deficit widened to £12.32 billion during the first month of the year, all readings coming in below initial estimates.
     
  • Technical indicators are turning bearish, we see scope for further weakness.
     
  • RSI has slipped below 50 levels and is biased lower. Stochs have turned bearish.
     
  • Next major support on the downside is seen at 50-DMA at 1.7570. Breach there could see further downside.
     
  • Breakout and close above 20-DMA could invalidate bearish bias.
