GBP/USD Analysis

This pair has been gloriously bullish for a couple of weeks now, cleanly breaking through resistance after resistance, flipping resistance to support, and carving out a wonderfully straight and supportive bullish trend line.

There is major news due over the next couple of days for both sides of this pair. Shortly there will be key U.K. data followed tomorrow by a statement on the USD from the Federal Reserve. These events may move the price dramatically, but the trend is strong enough to suggest that any sharp move down to support is likely to provide a buying opportunity. However if the Fed do something really unexpected to strengthen the USD, that picture will change in an instant.

GBPUSD 42815

There are high-impact events scheduled today concerning both the USD and the GBP. At 9:30am London time there will be a release of U.K. Preliminary GDP data. Later at 3pm there will be a release of U.S. CB Consumer Confidence data.
