GBPUSD is range bound between 1.2775 and 1.2610. Brak out needed for trend direction. A close above 1.2775 is likely to lead to break of 1.2828 with a move higher towards 1.30
A bearish break out i.e., a close below 1.2610 could ignite a sell-off down to around 1.25 support.

If RSI is closing below 40 threshold the bearish break out scenario is likely to unfold

AUDUSD has formed a Shoulder-Head-Shoulder like pattern and is currently testing what seems to be the Neckline at around 0.6522. A close below could lead to further sell-off down in to the Consolidation area 0.64-0.6270
A close above 0.6625 will demolish the S-H-S pattern with a likely bullish move to around 0.6738 to follow.

RSI is in negative sentiment indicating the bearish scenario to unfold

The Dollar Index seems to be crawling slowly higher currently above the 0.786 retracement. RSI is in positive sentiment supporting a bullish move towards strong resistance at around 104.27. The declining 100 DMA is adding to the resistance strength.  
A close below 102.75 will demolish the bullish scenario
