GBP/USD daily outlook

Key levels to watch for:
Support: 1.2090; 1.1630;
Resistance: 1.2320; 1.2480; 1.2775.

GBP/USD is testing the resistance at 1.2250. I think that if it breaks out above that level it will reach 1.2330 again.

GBP/USD broke the 1.2270 resistance level but went down and is currently traded at around 1.2230. I would wait until the Bank of England interest rate announcement this Thursday before opening my next trades on the pair.

I would agree with you to wait the Bank of England's economic policy meeting this Thursday.

Bearish on the Sterling.

GBP/USD reached a high of 1.2556 this week, but I think that whether the move to the upside will continue depends on the US election results next week.

A small gap down.

The British Pound was up against the US Dollar on Friday. By the close of US trading GBP USD was trading at 1.2517, gaining 0.44%. I believe that the support is now located at the level of 1.2141, Monday's low, and resistance is likely at the level of 1.2557 - the maximum of Friday's trading.

GBP/USD is climbing after forming several spinning top bars on the four hour time frame and rebounding from the support at 1.2380 and under different circumstances I would've opened a long position, but with the US elections looming on the horizon I think I will refrain from any kind of trading.

Seems like the UK economy is slowing, James Warren, Research Fellow at NIESR, said “Our estimates suggest that economic
growth slowed in 2016Q3 to 0.4 per cent, from 0.7 per cent in 2016Q2. While retail sales
have been buoyant in recent months, the production sector has acted as a drag on
economic growth. We estimate that output from the production sector declined by 0.2 per
cent in the third quarter of this year.”

Trump won, but the impact on this pair actually ended up being negligible, at least for now. Yes, there was volatility, but the pair is now back where it was yesterday.

There will be volatility whle the market shake this off. Oil was 3% down, and safe haven pairs like USDJPY was down to 101.20 levels. GBPUSD didn't rocket, but was above 1.25. We will see when the US trading session if we can regain some stability.

Price is moving in a range of 150 pips in high volatility. Waiting for the trend to appear in the next couple of days but I expect the overall sentiment to be bullish. The fact that the Brexit decision was brought back to Parliament can strengthen the pound's positions.

On Wednesday, the dollar strengthend growth relative to other currencies as the US currency recovered from losses incurred on the background of the shocking news of the victory of Donald Trump in the presidential elections in the United States. GBP/USD rose by 0.32% to 1.2417, falling from a one-month high at 1.2548, reached earlier.

How far could this rally of GBP strengthening go? Dollar is stronger now than before the flash crash so we are this a bit behind, but GBPJPY have surpassed the pre-flashcrash levels with over 300 pip, EURGBP with over 150 pip, GBPCHF is around the level it was before, GBPCAD about 400 pip over.

Strong week for the Sterling.

The British Pound was up against the US Dollar on Friday. By the close of US trading GBP/USD was trading at 1.2599, gaining 0.40%. I believe that the support is now located at the level of 1.2349, Wednesday's low and resistance is likely at the level of 1.2674 - the maximum of Friday's trading.

Key levels to watch for:
Support: 1.2460; 1.2300; 1.212;
Resistance: 1.2790.
