. GBP/USD - 1.3571.. Sterling fell for a 6th day on Thur. Despite initial narrow move in Asia n then a recovery to 1.3630 in Europe, price ratcheted lower to fresh 3-/2 month low of 1.3537 in NY after downbeat U.K. data b4 rebounding.

. Looking at the bigger picture, cable's strg ascent fm 2016 31-year bottom at 1.1491 caused by a 'flash crash' on Brexit worries to 1.3659 (Sep 2017) con- firms major low has been made. Despite rally in Jan after penetrating said res to 1.4346, then to post-Brexit fresh 21-month peak at 1.4377, subsequent selloff to 1.3747 last Fri, then Tue's break of Mar's low at 1.3712 to a 3-1/2 month low of 1.3537 Thur signals top has been made there n downside bias remains for weak- ness to 1.3483 (50% r of 1.2589-1.4377), then 1.3458 (2018 low in Jan), reckon 1.3300 (Dec 2017 low) should contain weakness.
