Technical Update For GBP/USD, EUR/GBP, GBP/JPY & GBP/NZD: 24.05.2018
With the month-long symmetrical triangle restricting the EURGBP moves between 0.8720 & 0.8800, chances of the pair’s recent pullback to test 0.8720 support and take a U-turn from there are higher. GBPJPY’s break of nine-month old ascending trend-line signals the pair’s further downside to the 144.95-145.15 rest-zone but its additional south-run can be confined by oversold RSI, which if ignored can drag the pair to 143.00 support.

British pound breaks down on Wednesday
The British pound broke down significantly during the day on Wednesday, slicing below the 1.34 level, and driving much lower as well. I believe that the market does continue to go much lower than that, and I think at this point it’s very likely that rallies will invite more selling, as the pair simply cannot find its footing and we have broken down below a major trend line recently.
