Focus on GBP\/AUD today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On fundamentals, <\/strong>there is no notable financial data due today. The difference in monetary policy between the UK and Australia will control the currency exchange rate in the short run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Blue vs Black, BoE rate vs RBA rate)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BoE raised its benchmark interest rate by 25 bps to the highest level of 5.25% since 2008. At the same time, the RBA\u2019s is currently set at 4.1%. The interest rate differential means room for arbitrage. AUD is deemed as a commodity currency, inherently vulnerable to commodity prices. The market is positive about RBA rate hikes, resulting in a bullish view of AUD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technically speaking, <\/strong>the GBP\/AUD daily cycle structure presents a potential Wolf Wave structure. However, the current price action structure does not show a clear bearish structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The daily price action has room to rise \u2014 support is found on the 33-day moving average. The exchange rate fluctuated on the 5-day moving average for three days and stopped falling with three lower shadows. Still, we need to be alert. The stochastic oscillator has been entangled, and the upper resistance line is not far away. The market may reverse at any time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(GBP\/AUD 1 -hour cycle, Ultima Markets MT4)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the hourly chart, GBP\/AUD has formed a clear rectangular range after three days of swinging. Yesterday’s breakthrough suggested that bulls are more dominant in the short run. However, judging from the ATR combination indicators, it is doubtful whether the market breakthrough is effective. From a technical standpoint, GBP\/AUD looks bullish, however, the sentiment may quickly change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
