GBP/USD Analysis

GBP/USD: The market is back to challenging the 200-Day SMA which managed to successfully cap gains on previous attempts. At this point, we continue to recommend fading any strength towards or just over the 200-Day SMA in anticipation for yet another topside failure and bearish resumption. As such, our recommendation would be to look to sell rallies towards 1.6000. Ultimately, only a close above 1.6250 would fully negate outlook.
