GBP/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.6851; (P) 1.6888; (R1) 1.6921; More...

GBP/USD drops further to as low as 1.6802 so far today and intraday bias remains on the downside. As noted before, a medium term top could be formed at 1.7190 already and the trend is reversing. Deeper fall should be seen to 1.6692 key support level for confirmation. On the upside, above 1.6894 minor resistance will turn bias neutral and bring consolidations. But recovery should be limited below 1.7058 resistance and bring fall resumption.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD - Sell at 1.6950

As the British pound has recovered after intra-day fall to 1.6812, suggesting minor consolidation would be seen and recovery to 1.6885-90 cannot be ruled out, however, reckon minor resistance at 1.6955 would limit upside and bring another decline later, below said support would signal recent decline from 1.7192 top is still in progress for retracement of early upmove to 1.6800 but near term oversold condition should limit downside to 1.6770 and reckon 1.6740-50 would hold.

Trade Idea Update: USD/CHF - Buy at 0.9010

Dollar's retreat after faltering below this week's high of 0.9107 has retained our view that near term sideways trading is likely to continue and correction to 0.9035 cannot be ruled out, however, reckon downside would be limited to 0.9004-08 support and bring another upmove later, above this week's high at 0.9107 would extend the erratic rise from 0.8699 low towards resistance at 0.9157 but near term overbought condition should prevent sharp move beyond 0.9175-80
