GBP/USD
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - William Moore, Technical Market Strategist at RBS has taken a look at GBPUSD from a technical perspective.
Moore notes that there is very little short term conviction or the run toward year end for the pair. He suggests that from a longer term perspective, the ceiling at 1.6306 will not be broken and if the markets were to trickle towards there over the next couple of weeks, it's a better entry level for short positions retaining downside targets at 1.5600 and 1.5300. However, on an intra-day perspective, 1.6131 should provide strong resistance and there is good support at 1.6070.
