GBP/USD: Unlikely to break above 1.3455 – UOB Group
Room for the Pound Sterling (GBP) to edge higher, but any advance is unlikely to break above 1.3455. In the longer run, GBP must break and hold above 1.3455 to resume strength, UOB Group FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Lee Sue Ann note.
24-HOUR VIEW: “Our view for GBP to ‘continue to decline’ yesterday was incorrect. Instead of declining, GBP rose and reached a high of 1.3434.

Support is at 1.3375, followed by 1.3340.” Read more...
