On Tuesday, GBP rallied to its strongest level since May 15 against USD, in tandem with the EURO, driven by prospects of further stimulus by the US Fed.
On Wednesday, GBP continued with its upward momentum against USD and the pair is currently quoting at 1.6108, near a four-month high of 1.6130.
The pair managed to decisively move above 1.6040 - 1.6060 strong resistance zone and as was mentioned in yesterday’s report, strengthen further towards 1.6120 levels.
On the downside, 1.60 – 1.6020 zone seems to act as very strong psychological support in the near-term for the currency pair. Immediate support on the downside lies near 1.6070 levels.
Should the pair break below the psychological support level at 1.60, the pair seems to extend the downward momentum towards 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement Level near 1.5900 levels.
