GBP/USD Analysis
The price yesterday rejected the supportive zone I had identified beginning more or less at the round number of 1.4800, although it has been taking its time about moving up since its initial burst which quickly peaked during yesterday’s New York session. The indications are that we are going to get a deeper pull back within the downwards trend, quite possibly all the way up to 1.4874, which might give another good opportunity to go short. I would not be surprised if today turns out to be an up day.
There is nothing due today concerning the GBP. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Unemployment Claims data at 1:30pm London time.
