GBP/USD - Softer USD And BoE Rate Hike Expectations Support

By Andrew M Spencer  —  Apr 18 - 07:40 PM
  • Flat after closing +0.4%, with the U.S. dollar off 0.4%, and EUR/GBP steady

  • Strong UK wages growth - BOEWATCH prices a 25pt 11 May hike to 4.5000 at 72%

  • Likely tight Asian range, sterling likely led by the USD and risk appetite

  • Charts; momentum studies slide, 5, 10 & 21 day moving averages conflict

  • 21-day Bollinger bands contract - uptrend has stalled - neutral setup

  • Close below the resilient 1.2387 rising 21 DMA would be a bearish signal

  • 1.2262, 38.2% of the March/April rise is initial significant support

  • NY 1.2413-1.2449 range is the initial support and resistance
