On Tuesday, at 08:30 GMT, the GBP/USD plummeted because of the publication of the Markit Flash Manufacturing and Services Purchasing Managers Index survey results. The Pound lost value due to the revelation that the Services PMI was at 51.8 instead of the forecast 56.9.

At mid-day, the rate's decline had paused, as the pair found support in the 100-hour simple moving average near 1.2475.

If the pair recovers, resistance might be encountered in the 50-hour simple moving average near 1.2535 and the 1.2550 level. Higher above, note the May high level zone at 1.2590/1.2615.

Meanwhile, a decline below the support of the 100-hour SMA could result in the pair looking for support in the 1.2450 mark. Below 1.2450, the combination of the weekly simple pivot point at 1.2407, the 1.2400 and the 200-hour simple moving average near 1.2390 might provide support.
