GBP/USD

Analysis:

On the chart of the English pound sterling, the trend direction since last February is set by a downward wave algorithm. The latest section is ascending, originating on November 12. The wave has the form of a stretched plane. The movement has entered the final phase. The target for the entire upswing may be the far resistance level.

Outlook:

In the first half of the day, today is expected a flat movement, with a downward vector. The decrease is possible not further than the calculated support. At the end of the day, one can expect an increase in volatility and a return to the uptrend.

AUD/USD

Analysis:

On the chart of the Australian currency in the pair against the US dollar, the unfinished upward wave pattern from December 3 last year is of most interest. The middle part (B) is approaching its end. The ascending section from January 6 has a reversal potential and may give a start to the final part (C).

Outlook:

A general sideways course between the nearest opposite direction zones is expected over the next 24 hours. After a likely pressure on the resistance zone, a downward movement can be expected, no further than the support zone. A resumption of an upward trend is not likely before tomorrow.
