Key Quotes
“The sudden reversal from a high of 1.2570 last Friday and the sharply lower opening early this morning came as a surprise”.
“The rapid swing lower has shifted the pressure to the downside and the current pull-back has scope to extend lower to month-to-date low at 1.2345/50. This is a rather strong support and at this stage, a sustained move below this level is not expected”.
“Overall, GBP is expected to stay under pressure in the next few days unless it can reclaim 1.2540 (1.2500 is already a very strong shorter-term resistance)”.
