GBP/USD Analysis
The environment has changed since I made my previous forecast for this pair last Thursday morning, as that day the Bank of England began to give out a more dovish outlook for this currency, producing a weaker GBP. Before, the GBP was the most relatively strong of all the major currencies after the USD. This announcement caused an initial fall, although the price did bottom out quite quickly at the long-term bullish trend line which has contained the price for two and a half months now. A break below that trend line and the key support at 1.5414 might see a short fall. There is also important flipped resistance not far overhead beginning just above 1.5500.
