• GBP/AUD technical outlook is bearish in short-term as RSI has turned lower, moving averages are mixed. 

• Immediate resistance is located at 1.7713 (5DMA ), any close above will push the pair towards 1.7807(23.6% fib).

• Strong support is seen at 1.7612 (38.2% fib) and break below could take the pair towards 1.7552 (Ichimoku Cloud base).
