GBPUSD

Cable lost traction, as the upside remains capped at 1.62 barrier and fresh weakness through 1.6114, near-term range floor and psychological 1.61 handle, weaken the structure. The price reached the mid-point of larger 1.5892/1.6254 range, with negatively aligned technicals, seeing risk of extension towards the range floor and higher base at 1.59 zone. Loss of psychological 1.6000 support is required to confirm.

USDJPY

Overall bears off 98.99 peak remains in play, as recovery attempt off fresh low at 96.93 were for now capped by 55DMA / bear-trendline at 97.75. Weak near-term studies keep the downside at risk, as long as the price holds below the trendline, with lower top formation seen as likely near-term scenario. Return to 97.00 support zone, the last obstacle en-route to 96.55 target, is required to confirm bearish resumption. Otherwise, prolonged corrective action would be seen on a lift above 97.75. However, only regain of 98.47 lower top, would bring bulls fully in play and shift near-term focus higher.

AUDUSD

The pair remains under pressure, as fresh extension from 0.9621 lower top approached psychological 0.9500 support. With over 50% of 0.9280/0.9755 rally being retraced so far, risk of further retracement increases, with break below 0.9500 handle seen as a trigger. Oversold near-term conditions, however, see consolidative phase preceding fresh weakness that would look for 0.9460, 61.8% and higher platform at 0.94 zone, once price loses 0.95 handle. On the upside, initial resistance lies at 0.9570 lower platform, with regain of 0.96 barrier, expected to face strong resistance at 0.9621/28, lower top / 50% retracement of 0.9755/0.9502 downleg, where stronger rallies should be capped.
