GBP/USD Technical Strategy: Short at 1.6233
Support: 1.6088, 1.5954, 1.5819
Resistance: 1.6255, 1.6308, 1.6486
The US Dollar is making slow progress against the British Pound, with the UK unit sliding to a two-week low. Near-term support is at 1.6088, the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 50% level at 1.5954. Alternatively, a reversal back above the 23.6% Fib at 1.6255 clears the way for a challenge of falling trend line resistance at 1.6308.
We sold GBPUSD at 1.6233, initially targeting 1.6088. A stop-loss will be activated on a daily close above 1.6388. We will book half of the trade and move the stop-loss to breakeven once the first target is reached.
