. GBP/USD - 1.5993..Cable weakened to 1.5967 in Asia on Thur n then 1.5762 in Europe on Thur following Wed's FOMC selloff. Despite a minor bounce to .6009, price later briefly tumbled to session lows of 1.5950 after release of robust U.S. GDP but short-covering lifted price to 1.6038 b4 easing.

. Let's look at the bigger picture 1st, Wed's sharp selloff to 1.6003 n then 1.5950 Thur suggests the correction fm Oct's 11-month low at 1.5875 has ended earlier at 1.6186 last Tue n consolidation with downside bias remains for weakness to 1.5940/50 sup area (Oct 16 n y'day's low respectively), a daily close below there wud signal MT downtrend fm Jul's near 6-year peak at 1.7192 has once again resumed n yield re-test of Oct's 11-month low at 1.5875 next week. Looking ahead, below 1.5875 wud send cable lower to 1.5820, this is 50% proj. of the entire fall fm 1.7192-1.6052 measured fm 1.6525. Therefore, selling cable on recovery is the way to go n only abv 1.6088/89 (prev. sup, now res) wud dampen present bearish scenario on cable.

. Today, we're holding a short position in anticipation of marginal fall but 'bullish convergences' on hourly indicators wud keep cable abv 1.5900/10.
