Cable's selloff to 1.2876 yesterday suggests early pullback from 1.2789 has ended at 1.2975 last Thursday and consolidation with downside bias remains. Offers are touted at 1.2900/10 and more above at 1.2920/30 with stops building up above there, suggesting selling on intra-day recovery is the way to go.
