GBP/USD – Week 8 – Waiting for a channel breakout.

Short
FX_IDC:GBPUSD   British Pound / U.S. Dollar
The British Pound has surged past the 1.40 level, reaching the highest point in almost three years. UK Markit's preliminary PMI’s came out notably above expectations, but the bullish move was primarily driven by a Dollar weakness, which suffers after last week's yield increase.
Our technical view remains unchanged, and we still expect the price to start a bearish pullback. Until we get a proper breakout from the contracting channel that we are currently in, the bullish sentiment will remain on the market.
Trade with care.

Best regards,
