  • GBP/USD bulls are staging a reversal from the 1.3100 level as the pair has now reversed earlier losses. Earlier hawkish comments by Bank of England’s Cunliffe, the US-UK trade deal hopes and the softer University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment index all collaborated to lift GBP/USD above the 1.3200 figure.
  • The momentum has switched to bullish as GBP/USD is trading above the 200-period simple moving average and the upper trendline of the bearish channel. The next objective for bulls  is to get to 1.3250, June 4 high and the 1.3300 figure.
