FxWirePro: GBP/USD sell-off resumes after PM May reignites "hard Brexit" fears

  • GBP/USD declined sharply on Monday as sterling was weighted down after talk of Britain drastically reworking trade ties with the European Union after Brexit sent the pound tumbling to two-month lows.
     
  • A stronger U.S. dollar also added losses for the Sterling as signals that U.S. interest rates could rise three times this year lifted the dollar.
     
  • Further upside for this pair is expected to be limited as strong resistance level at 1.2334 is set to limit upside and bring decline towards lower levels.
     
  • To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 1.2229, a break above this level would expose the cable to next resistance level at 1.2334 levels.
     
  • To the downside strong support can be seen at 1.2114, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.2076.
