• GBP /AUD  eased on Thursday after   data showed UK wage growth slowed in May.

• Britain's statistics office said earnings excluding bonuses grew by an annual 5.7% in the three months to May,  down from 6.0% in the three months to April and represented the slowest growth in core pay since the summer of 2022.

• GBP /AUD   bulls are reluctant to probe for new highs   as the data added no new hawkish BoE rate expectations.

• The pair hit daily high at 1.9359 and was last trading at 1.9286 in afternoon US session.

• Immediate resistance is located at 1.9353(23.6% fib), any close above will push the pair towards 1.9423 (April 17th high).

• Immediate support is seen at 1.9263 (38.2% fib) and break below could take the pair towards 1.9191 (50% fib).

Recommendation: Good to sell   around 1.9300, with stop loss of 1.9400 and target price of 1.9220.
