GBP/USD Analysis
The GBP has been in a strong upwards trend against the USD but was dragged down by the plummeting EUR since last Thursday afternoon. However, I do not see any reason to see the GBP as weakening, it remains the strongest global currency along with the NZD and there is nothing happening to change that yet.
The only key level that was reached occurred towards the end of trading on Friday, since when the price seems to have found some support below at around 1.6850. As mentioned last week, the support here has been pretty flexible so I do not feel comfortable going long here today, but would instead wait for the price to fall further, at least to the inner bullish trend line below.
There is no high-impact news due today concerning either the GBP or the USD. It is likely to be a quiet day.
