GBP/USD Analysis
The pair fell yesterday after breaking down past support. There are no obvious trend lines and again today there will be key data coming for both sides of the pair. The USD looks strong right now across the board, so a good number for the NFP later should make this pair fall even further. However the GBP has a little strength in it, so there are other currencies that would probably fall further against the USD if that happens.
Regarding the GBP, there will be a release of Construction PMI data at 9:30am London time. Concerning the USD, there will be Non-Farm Employment Change and Unemployment Change data at 1:30pm, one day earlier than usual.
