GBPAUD Weekly

On daily chart, we note that as a result of growth lasting from July 21 market reached vicinity of local resistance, where in the beginning of August appeared supply reaction. Still, the declines did not last long. However, considering the layout of the current moves, we notice that it definitely resembles only a correction. As a result in the nearest future I would expect continuation of falls and re-testing of the 1,5900 level.

The unemployment rate in the UK slid to 4.4%, which is the lowest level in 42 years. We observed a strong appreciation of the sterling pound. If the upward trend continues, in the nearest future we would expect a re-test of 1.6420, which rejected could be a signal for continuation of declines.
