"We are seeing encouraging signs with respect of pay... we expect this pick-up to accelerate."
- Mark Carney, BoE Governor (based on BBC)

Pair's Outlook

GBP/USD declined significantly on Wednesday due to inflation report from the Bank of England. The pair breached a number of strong support lines, including monthly and weekly S1. The current trading level is located below the weekly S1 at 1.5773. However, technical studies became neutral on a daily chart, meaning that we can expect a stabilization of the pair, at least in the short-term. In the medium-term, however, the Pound may plunge down to monthly at 1.5662, as predicted by weekly technicals.

Traders' Sentiment

It seems that some traders took profit from yesterday's decline. Right now 60% of all positions are long (58% yesterday), while pending orders in 100-pip range improved during last 24 hours.
