GBP/USD Analysis

In spite of yesterday’s wild movements through global Forex and stock markets, this pair behaved true to its recent form, like a calm harbour sheltered from the stormy sea. There was an upwards move in line with its recent shallow trend, helped by the selloff in the USD yesterday. Key support and resistance levels were respected, with the high of the day being made just under the nearest resistance of 1.5803.

Therefore overall there is no change to the situation with this pair at all.

GBP/USD Signal

There is nothing due today concerning the GBP. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of CB Consumer Confidence data at 3pm London time
