The line chart shown above indicates how the prices of the currency pair GBP/AUD has been changing over the last few years. It starts from October 24, 2017, and ends in October of 2020. As it can be seen from the chart, the price of the currency pair has been changing a lot in the recent years. It has started increasing significantly in 2019, and hit its highest point in March of 2020, during the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Howeve , the prices went down quickly. for the past few days, the price of the currency pair has been increasing as the hopes for talks between EU and UK increased, however, the price went down again today. There are many reasons for this, one of them being the second wave of the Covid-19, which started spreading in the UK once again.

As some of the experts are saying on the market, the Australian Dollar is predicted to enter a fresh technical medium-term downtrend against the Births Pound, however. But, it is still very much unclear which way the prices will go. If the task between the UK and Europe continue, we could see Pound getting stronger. Recently, after the renewal of the talks between the two sides, GBP increased significantly, and if the task continue, we could see the same trend.

Last week, UK officials have said that they were ready to walk away from the UK-EU Brexit negotiations. One of the main reasons for it is the fact that EU is allegedly showing signs of lack of compromise when it comes to some conditions. However, as both sides want to have some type of a deal, investors were hoping for an outcome, which helped GBP to go up. This week, one of the negotiators of the Brexit announced that the deal was close, which gave additional hopes to investors.

As of now, investors are waiting for a whole new round of negotiations between the two sides, and the officials representing the two sides are hoping to have some type of a deal by mid-November. Because of current situation, investors are advised to keep themselves updated about the ongoing events before making any moves.
