Forex Flash: Watch for break of GBP/USD 1.6000 for accelerated downside – RBS
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - William Moore, Technical Markets Strategist at RBS has taken a look at GBPUSD from a technical perspective.
Moore starts by noting that just like in EURUSD, there is a head and shoulders formation forming in the short term chart, emphasising the importance of the support level around 1.6000/18 holding in the short term. He feels that if it were to break and the market began feasting on the stops beneath there may be a run down to 1.5881. He writes, "Stop losses can be positioned above the recent high at 1.6134 at 1.6150 and the position added to should 1.6000 be broken."
