GBP/USD Analysis
The pair continued to fall yesterday but formed a local double bottom at 1.5340 which has produced something of a recovery overnight. There is local resistance at the round number of 1.5400 which may hold the price now if there is going to be a further move down and strengthening of the USD. Even if we get above 1.5400, there is resistance above that beginning at 1.5450 that is likely to be strong, so it is hard to see a really meaningful upwards move happening with this pair any time soon.
Regarding the GBP, there will be a release of Manufacturing PMI data at 9:30am London time. Concerning the USD, there will be a release of ISM Manufacturing PMI data due at 3pm.
