GBP/AUD Technical Analysis: Break of immediate resistance-line favors 1.8315 comeback

GBP/AUD trades little changed around 1.8310 during initial Asian session on Wednesday.
The pair recently crossed three-week old descending trend-line connecting highs marked since January 25.
With the clear break of short-term resistance, the quote may accelerate its recovery to 1.8315 horizontal-line upside barrier.
However, pair’s advance beyond 1.8315 can become difficult if overbought levels of 14-bar relative strength index (RSI) play its role, if not then 1.8440 and 1.8515 can reappear on the chart.
Meanwhile, 1.8150 and 1.8080 can offer nearby support to the pair during its pullback ahead of highlighting an upward sloping trend-line at 1.8020, adjacent to 1.8000 round-figure.
Given the pair’s decline under 1.8000, 50% Fibonacci retracement level of mid-December to late-January rise, at 1.7900, followed by 1.7820, can gain sellers’ attention.
