GBP/USD - 1.2671... Cable finally cut its recent losing streak on Wed n staged a rally fm 1.2543 at European open on broad-based short covering in sterling, the pound later climbed to as high as 1.2674 in post-FOMC NY trading.

On the bigger picture, cable's rally fm 2016 31-year bottom at 1.1491 due to a 'flash crash' on Brexit worries to 2018 21-month peak at 1.4377 in Apr con- firms major low has been made. The subsequent fall to 1.2662 (Aug), then to a 20 -month bottom of 1.2412 at the start of Jan suggests downside bias remains. Despite erratic rise to 1.3383 in Mar, cable break of prev. May's 1.2605 low to 1.25 59 in May suggests re-test of 1.2412 would be seen, break needed to extend said fall fm 1.4377 to 1.2337 (70.7% r of 1.1491-1.4377) but 1.2340 should hold. On the upside, only abv 1.2815 confirms low has been made, then risk would shift to the upside for stronger gain to 1.2902, then 1.2994 (50% r fm 1.3383) in Jul.
