FxWirePro: dips below lower range, bearish bias increases

  • The GBP/USD declined sharply on Friday as sellers stepped in after opinion poll showed Prime Minister Theresa May's lead down to just 5 percentage points over the Labour opposition less than two weeks before a general election.
     
  • The British pound was also weighed down after U.S. gross domestic product in the first quarter and data on durable goods orders in April came in a bit stronger than analysts forecasts.
     
  • The pound hit a three-week low of $1.2787, more than two cents below last week's six-month highs.
     
  • The pair remains under bears control unless until it trades below 1.2865 resistance level, therefore it is good to sell this pair on rallies.
     
  • To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 1.2810, a break above this level would expose to cable to next resistance level at 1.2865.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 1.2786, a break below will open the door towards next level at 1.2754.
