  • GBP/AUD is consolidating break above major trendline resistance at 1.8070.
     
  • The pair finds stiff resistance at 200W SMA at 1.8348, we see further upside on break above.
     
  • Scope then for test of 50% Fib at 1.90 ahead of 61.8% Fib at 1.9857.
     
  • Technical indicators are biased higher on the weekly charts. Momentum bullish and RSI shows strength at 64 levels.
     
  • On the flip side, rejection at 200W SMA could see weakness.
     
  • The pair is on track to close the week with a Doji formation, which might signal reluctance of bulls to extend gains.
     
  • Weakness till 200-DMA at 1.7783 then likely.

Resistance levels - 1.8243 (5-DMA), 1.8304 (38.2% Fib), 1.85 (Mar 2018 high)
