GBP/USD: On recovery mode, back above key Fibo level
The US desks are offering USD, helping the GBP/USD pair cover the lost ground. The pair has recovered from the low of 1.3878 to trade above 1.39 levels.
Sits above 76.4% Fibo level
At 1.3932, the spot is trading just above 76.4% Fibo expansion of July 2014 high-April 2015 low-June 21015 high seen at 1.3924 levels. The risk-off seen in Europe further added to the Brexit-led selling pressure around Sterling.
However, the offered tone appears to have weakened in the US session. The focus now is on the US data – preliminary services PMI and New home sales figure.
