GBP/USD Analysis
We saw a fairly strong rise in the USD yesterday across the board. This pair was no exception but it is notable that if that position reverses, this pair could be the major bullish beneficiary.
Nevertheless we have seen formerly supportive levels flipped to resistance, and the level immediately above has been tested already and is holding so far. The chart shows it all below: evenly spaced levels both above and below giving high-probability reversal levels.
There are high-impact news releases scheduled today concerning both the USD and the GBP. Concerning the GBP, there will be a release of the MPC Monetary Policy Committee Bank Rate Votes at 9:30am London time. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of U.S. FOMC Meeting Minutes at 7pm London time.
