  • GBP/AUD is extending break above 100W-SMA at 1.7502 last week, bias higher.
     
  • The pair has hit fresh multi-month highs at 1.7996 and is on track to test 200W-SMA at 1.8420.
     
  • Technical support upside, RSI on weekly charts shows strong momentum at 70 levels and is gaining traction.
     
  • Momentum studies are bullish, Stochs are sharply higher, but hover in overbought territory so caution advised.
     
  • Bulls now eye 38.2% Fib retrace of 2.2372 to 1.5789 fall at 1.8304 ahead of 200W SMA at 1.8420.
     
  • On the flipside, retrace below weekly 100-SMA could see weakness, scope then for test of 20-DMA at 1.7571.

Support levels - 1.7805 (5-DMA), 1.7571 (20-DMA), 1.7473 (100W-SMA)

Resistance levels - 1.80, 1.8192 (June 27 week high), 1.8304 (38.2% Fib retrace of 2.2372 to 1.5789 fall), 1.8420 (200W SMA)

Recommendation: Stay long on dips, SL: 1.7470, target 1.82, 1.83/ 1.8420.
