Pair's Outlook
GBP/USD ignored the resistance at 1.6089/66 and continued to climb en route to the main resistance area at 1.6273/37, as indicated by the majority of weekly technical studies. Considering that there are no significant resistances overhead except for the weekly R1 at 1.6118, the currency pair could climb another 100-150 pips before giving in to the selling pressure once again.
