Talking Points:

  • GBP/USD Technical Strategy: Short at 1.6233
  • Support: 1.6088 1.5954 1.5819
  • Resistance: 1.6255 1.6292 1.6486

The British Pound is cautiously drifting downward against the US Dollar with sellers claiming a foothold below the 1.62 figure. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci expansionat 1.6088 exposes the 50% level at 1.5954. Alternatively a turn back above the 23.6% Fib at 1.6255 opens the door for a test of falling trend line resistance at 1.6292.

We entered short GBPUSD at 1.6233 initially targeting 1.6088. A stop-loss is set to trigger on a daily close above 1.6388. We will take profit on half of the position and move the stop-loss to breakeven once the first objective is met.
