The decline of the Pound against the US Dollar eventually reached the 1.1900 level, which acted as support. During the first half of Wednesday's trading, the pair retraced back up to the resistance zone of Friday's low levels at 1.1975/1.1995.

Economic Calendar



Watch out for the Wednesday's Federal Reserve's FOMC Meeting Minutes at 18:00 GMT.

On Thursday, the ADP Non-farm Employment Change might impact the markets through the value of the US Dollar.

On Friday, the United States are scheduled to release their monthly employment data at 12:30 GMT. Expect the data release to consist of the Average Hourly Earnings, Non-Farm Employment Change and the Unemployment Rate.

GBP/USD short-term view

If the pair bounces off the resistance of the 1.1975/1995 zone, a potential decline would have to pass below the 1.1900 mark, before approaching the 1.1850 and 1.1800 levels.

On the other hand, a surge above the resistance zone is highly likely set to almost immediately encounter resistance in the 1.2000 level mark. Higher above, note the approaching 50 and 100-hour simple moving averages, which have previously acted as minor resistance.
