GBP/USD trading negatively at 1.5542/45
FXstreet.com (New York) - The GBP/USD has managed to trade sideways during the afternoon of European trading, after experiencing volatility earlier today on the heels of UK data.
GBP/USD driven by earlier data
Earlier today in the United Kingdom, Industrial Production (YoY) fell only -0.6% in April, beating estimates calling for a drop of -0.7%. In addition, Manufacturing Production (YoY) yielded a figure of -0.5%, which missed expectations of only -0.4%.
GBP/USD upside move intact
“The GBP/USD is trying to move to the upside and is trading close the previous top at 1.5605, which is the key to the upside move today. Prolonged stability with four-hour closing above 1.5605 might support a new bullish wave in the upcoming period, while Linear Regression Indicators support this positive outlook but momentum indicators require stability above the mentioned level to support the positive outlook as they offer negative signals.” notes the Technical Analyst Team at ICN.com.
Briefing the technicals, the pair is operating at the 1.5542/45 level, or -0.18% in these moments. The GBP/USD will look towards supports at 1.5514 followed by 1.5458, and finally 1.5422. Alternatively, a movement higher will usher in resistances at 1.5606, then 1.5642, eventually 1.5698, calculates the Mataf.net analyst team.
