An extension of the ongoing decline could eventually reach the support range at 1.2535/1.2540. Below this range, note the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.2526.On the other hand, a recovery of the Pound against the US Dollar is expected to face the 50, 100 and 200-hour simple moving averages, the weekly simple pivot point and the 1.2590/1.2610 range. However, if these levels fail to hold down, the 1.2630 level could once again act as resistance, as it did on Monday morning.
