GBP/USD Analysis

There is little change over the past 24 hours, although the nearest key resistance level did hold, trading was quite thin and erratic.

Until the British referendum on 23rd June, the GBP is going to wild and dangerous to trade in general.

New polls released yesterday show the “Leave” vote pulling into the lead, raising the spectre of British exit from the E.U. which generally spooks the financial markets. This gives this pair a bearish bias.Concerning the GBP, there will be a release of CPI data at 9:30am London time. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Retail Sales data at 1:30pm.
