"The [May] surveys point to [UK] GDP growing at a quarterly rate of just 0.4% in May, raising doubts about the ability of the economy to rebound convincingly from the weakness seen at the start of the year."

Pair's Outlook
The Cable remained relatively unchanged last Friday, despite better-than-expected fundamental data. Nevertheless, the Sterling is still likely to outperform the US Dollar today. A strong resistance area rests near the open price, represented by the 1.57 psychological level and the monthly R1. If the GBP/USD receives enough boost, we should see a rally towards the weekly PP at 1.5753. Meanwhile, technical indicators retain their strong bullish signals in the daily and weekly timeframes.
Traders' Sentiment
Market sentiment has reached a perfect equilibrium today. At the same time, the number of orders to acquire the British Pound edged up from 56 to 62%.
