"The pound has come under added pressure into the end of the year. Diverging economic outlooks and monetary policy divergence should keep a lid on sterling rallies, while the threat of a hard Brexit and looming invocation of Article 50 could expose the UK currency to additional downside."  
– LMAX (based on Business Recorder) 


Pair's Outlook 
Wednesday ended with the British Pound weakening against the US Dollar again, this time piercing the monthly S1. However, the second target remained untouched, as volatility was limited by the 1.22 and the 1.23 major levels. Even though technical indicators keep giving bearish signals today, the 1.22 mark could still hold and prevent the Cable from falling deeper down, also being reinforced by the monthly S1. The monthly S1 is now unlikely to be reliable, thus, the Sterling has the potential to negate yesterday's losses and edge closer to the 1.23 mark once more. 

Traders' Sentiment 
Market sentiment remains bullish, with 66% of all open positions being long today (previously 65%). Meanwhile, the share of sell orders inched down, namely from 59 to 56%.
