Pair's Outlook

Tuesday's rally failed to reach the weekly S1, instead the Sterling returned back to the 2012 highs. This level is strengthened by the 100-day SMA and the monthly S1, meaning this support may survive several more days. However, once it is broken, the exchange rate will be expected to target 1.5923/14, the current location of the 200-day SMA and the monthly S3.

Traders' Sentiment

While traders are becoming more bullish towards the U.S. Dollar in the EUR/USD pair, they are much less sure the currency will be able to gain value in GBP/USD, where 57% of positions are long and 43% are short. Concerning orders, 56% of them are to acquire the British Pound.
