GBPJPY

The pair extends near-term recovery off 170.40 low, with break above initial 171.65, 18 Aug high, testing psychological 172.00 barrier. Near-term studies regained bullish tone and support the price action for test of pivotal 172.56, 13 Aug high and near Fibonacci 61.8% retracement of 174.17/170.40 descend, break of which is required to confirm near-term base and allow for stronger bounce. On the other side, negative daily studies see increased risk of lower top formation and subsequent weakness, in case the pair fails to clear 172.56 hurdle, with the wave principles supporting such scenario, as the price rides on the fourth, corrective wave, which should ideally stall well under 172.56 resistance.

Res: 172.20; 172.56; 172.73; 173.00
Sup: 171.78; 171.65; 171.21; 170.67

EURGBP

Negative hourly structure extended weakness to 0.7968 so far, over 38.2% of 0.7871/0.8034 upleg, with further easing not ruled out, as 4-hour indicators are breaking below the midlines. Extended pullback, which requires daily close below 0.80 handle, would increase downside risk towards 0.7915 higher base and psychological 0.7900 support, in case of fresh slide below temporary footstep at 0.7968, reinforced by daily cloud base.

Res: 0.8000; 0.8034; 0.8056; 0.8080

AUD/NZD
