EURGBP continues to trade below its most recent highs. A bear threat is present and attention is on support at 0.8597, the Aug 14 low. Clearance of this level would confirm a resumption of the downtrend that started Jul 28 and highlight potential for a deeper retracement. This would open 0.8562, a Fibonacci retracement. For bulls, resistance to watch is 0.8674, the Aug 25 and 29 high. A breach would instead signal a stronger reversal.

Aussie 10-yr futures remain above their recent lows - for now. To the upside, the next resistance is at 96.207, a Fibonacci retracement point. Initial near-term resistance is seen at 95.805, the Aug 4 high. A break of this hurdle would be a bullish development. Next support undercuts at 95.420 (pierced), the Feb 13 low, ahead of 95.275, the Nov 14 low and a key support. Clearance of this level would strengthen a bearish condition.

Clearance of this level would signal scope for a climb towards 1.3636, 76.4% of the bear leg between Jul 1 and Aug 1. Key short-term support is 1.3391, the Aug 22 low.
