GBP/USD Analysis
The price has reached an area of some support, which has been enough to halt any further substantial fall since early in yesterday’s London session. However, the action still looks bearish, so it feels as if the price will again fall today to make new 2-month low prices.
There is nothing due today regarding either the GBP or the USD.
