Daily Analysis
Consolidation b4 with upside bias

Resistance
1.4340 - Tue's high
1.4280 - 38.2% r of 1.4604-1.4080
1.4250 - Y'day's high

1.4151 - Wed's NY low
1.4125 - Wed's low


GBP/USD - 1.4222... Although cable met renewed selling in European morning n penetrated Wed's 1.4125 low to a fresh 7-year trough of 1.4080 at NY open, intra-day rally in euro triggered broad-based short-covering rally to 1.4250. 

. On the bigger picture 1st, cable's cross-inspired break of previous 2015 low at 1.4566 (Apr) in early Dec n break of 2010 trough at 1.4228 to 1.4080 signals the major downtrend fm 1.7192 (2014 peak made in Jul) remains in progress n downside bias remains for further weakness twd 'psychological' target at 1.4000. Having said that, y'day's rally fm 1.4080 to as high as 1.4250 has formed a near-term hammer 'reversal' pattern on the daily candle stick chart, suggesting volatile consolidation with upside bias would be seen in the coming next few days n gain twd 1.4340 is now envisaged. Therefore, position players can buy the pound on dips for 1.4300 or sell on next leg of rally twd 1.4340 as only a daily close abv 1.4400 would bring stronger correction to 1.4500/10 in Feb. 

. Today, as price has maintained a firm undertone in Asia n with hourly indicators are currently rising, buying cable on dips is the way t go n only below 1.4151 may risk 1.4125/30 b4 prospect of another rise next week. gbp
