GBP/USD Analysis
Both the USD and GBP are strong so for the time being, this pair does not seem to be going anywhere. The price has become stuck in a range between about 1.5550 and the resistance at 1.5673 which has held a double top.
In these conditions, trading the range off rejections of either side of the range should be the best strategy.
If the price breaks down and returns to the excellent trend line shown on the chart, and then reverses bullishly, it could be a great opportunity to get long.
However with both the UK and USA seeming to be the only major economies looking to tighten monetary policy in the foreseeable future, we may be in for a period of consolidation.
There is nothing due today regarding the GBP or the USD.
