GBP/USD Analysis

Yesterday I was seeing some bullish signs plus probably support at 1.5537 and both accurately described yesterday’s London session, although the move up from 1.5537 was relatively limited.

We are still stuck within a well-defined range with no signs of breakout, although the FOMC release tonight could change that situation if there are any surprises.

This is probably not the most interesting pair to trade at the moment, although key levels should hold before the FOMC.

GBP/USD Signal

There is nothing due today regarding the GBP. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of the FOMC Meeting Minutes and Federal Funds Rate at 7pm London time.
