GBP USD Technical Forex Analysis for Forex Traders

Rate is two-way on the way down to support around the 1.7500 area; volumes lighter so far. Rate is likely heavily over-sold. Follow-on selling likely to attract short-covering around the double-bottom lows for Sept. Follow-on selling likely from technical’s and spillover from EURO. Aggressive traders can buy this dip; look for a recovery back to the 1.8000 handle near term.

Two-way action likely near-term; heavy focus on bailout plan. Possible sovereign interest on the dip as semi-officials seen on dips in both EURO and GBP recently. Some stops triggered along with active selling; traders note profit-taking bids. Major support has held for two weeks now, any weakness likely to be bought hard. OK to buy any time in my view.
