GBP USD Technical Forex Analysis for Forex Traders
Follow-on selling drops rate into next support at the 1.4700 area last week but rate starts firmer. Traders note solid two-way action with stops building above the market likely in the 1.5050 area and higher. Some stops over 1.5000 flushed overnight. Sellers hold control above 1.5000 today as rate backs off highs but lows hold.
OK to buy if flat on a dip. Traders also note the same names seen in size on the bid the past few days has been on the offer overnight. Cross spreaders continue to hold interest near-term; profit-taking likely to result in a squeeze on the further strength. Technical trade overnight as traders decide near-term action with little to go on but the charts.
BOE rate cut next month increasingly likely but that is likely completely factored in at this point. Traders note liquidity is only moderate and still on the lower side. Aggressive traders can look to buy the next dip.
