GBP/USD Analysis
We had a bullish bull back yesterday which got close to the higher round number at 1.3100 before falling off. The Asian session has been very flat and quiet as at the time of writing. Overall no meaningful changes to the picture, which still looks bearish and as if the better opportunities in the near future are going to remain on the short side.
There is nothing due today concerning the GBP. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Building Permits data at 1:30pm London time.
