GBPAUD - Will The AUD News Change The Trend Direction?

Long
jpeacockfx Updated   
OANDA:GBPAUD   British Pound / Australian Dollar
Analysis:
Looking at this pair we're able to see that price is making a move to the upside. This is confirmed when we take a closer look at price and we can see that price is forming a series of higher highs and higher lows which confirms our bullish thesis. Currently price is sat at a key level which has held as both support and resistance in the past so we expect that this level will be respected and will hold again. Fundamentally the GBP is the 3rd strongest major currency pair and each week it gains more and more strength, whereas the AUD is the 3rd weakest major currency pair making it not very attractive to buy. Although the AUD did have some bullish news last night we don't expect that this will continue especially after the AUD news that we're expecting tonight. If the news later tonight comes out bullish for the AUD then this will invalidate our idea however if the news comes out bearish for the AUD then we'd have everything that we need to enter long on this pair.

Comment:
This trade started out badly for us. We went a fair bit into drawdown and this was starting to look like a losing trade however with the recent GBP strength and bullish news that has come out we've seen this trade benefit and start to look positive for us again. We're not in the clear just yet but next week is a busy week especially for the GBP so once we get those news events we'll have a lot more momentum for this trade. For now there isn't much to do other then sit and wait for these news events as they will be the big movers. Stay patient!
