The forecast for the GBP/AUD turned moderately bearish after this currency pair rallied over 2,000 pips into its horizontal resistance area, recovering from the fiscal shock of proposed unfunded UK tax cuts.

The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud recovered from its depression and joined the sideways trend after reaching its previous peak.
