  • GBP/USD Technical Strategy: Flat


  • Support: 1.5100, 1.5025, 1.4903


  • Resistance: 1.5188, 1.5269, 1.5368


The British Pound continues to consolidate in a choppy range below the 1.53 figure against the US Dollar. Near-term support is at 1.5100, the 14.6% Fibonacci expansion, with a break below that on a daily closing basis exposing the 23.6% level at 1.5025. Alternatively, a reversal above channel top resistance at 1.5188 clears the way for a test of the 38.2% retracement at 1.5269.



Positioning is inconclusive at this point, with prices offering no clear-cut and actionable signal to initiate a long or short trade. We will continue to remain on the sidelines for the time being, waiting for a compelling opportunity to present itself.
