GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Sterling sticking to 1.31 ahead of BoE rate hike

  • The Sterling is trading into familiar territory for the week ahead of the Bank of England's highly-expected rate hike.
  • BoE rate hike might not go off with slumping economic data for the UK, which could see the Sterling heading for new 2018 lows.
  • The GBP/USD saw July end the month near where it started as momentum bleeds out of the major pair on a still-muddy Brexit.
