FxWirePro: GBP/AUD struggles at major trendline resistance at 1.7070, further upside only on break above

  • GBP/AUD upside struggling to break major trendline resistance at 1.7080.
     
  • The pair is holding break above 200-DMA, further upside likely on break above trendline.
     
  • Bullish RSI divergence adds to upside bias in the pair. Price action is holding above daily cloud and momentum studies are bullish.
     
  • Next bull target likely at 1.76 (38.2% Fib retrace of 2.0530 to 1.5789 fall). On the flipside, we see bullish invalidation on close below 200-DMA. 
     
  • 200-DMA at 1.6711 is major support on the downside, while immediate resistance is seen at 1.76 (38.2% Fib retrace of 2.0530 to 1.5789 fall)

Support levels - 1.6908 (23.6% Fib retrace of 2.0530 to 1.5789 fall), 1.6828 (5-DMA), 1.6710 (200-DMA)

Resistance levels - 1.7070 (Trendline), 1.7155 (Dec 1 high), 1.7412 (Sept 8 high), 1.76 (38.2% Fib)
