Hourly chart: The british data tore the exchange rate below the support as visible on the chart, and should be heading towards the support at 0,8220.
An attempt to climb back could be short lived as the resistances at 0,8260-0,8280 combined with the bottom of the channel should keep the selling pressure high.
