​​​EUR/GBP dips 

EUR/GBP's drop through the 10 April £0.8520 low has so far taken it to £0.8487, close to the January high at £0.8473 which may act as minor support. 

​Because of inverse polarity the recent daily lows at £0.8520-to-£0.8531 may now act as resistance ahead of the more important  £0.8613-to-£0.8623 resistance zone.  

​Only if overcome, would the December 2023 peak at £0.8714 and the current April peak at £0.8738 high be back in sight.

​GBP/USD resumes its ascent 

GBP/USD has resumed its ascent and in doing so has risen above last week's high at $1.3424 with the February 2022 low at $1.3487 representing the next upside target. 

​Minor support sits at Monday's $1.3280 low ahead of Wednesday's $1.3234 low.

​AUD/USD grapples with resistance 

AUD/USD is still trying to break through its February-to- April highs at $0.6388-to-$0.6439, having recovered from Thursday's $0.6344 low.  

​The 200-day simple moving average (SMA) at $0.6459 represents the next upside target but may short-term cap. 

Below $0.6344 slithers the 55-day SMA at $0.6300.​​
