GBP/USD Technical Analysis: stuck near 1.31 as traders await the BoE

  • The Sterling is drooping under successive lower highs as Brexit concerns and softening economic data for the UK continue to keep the GBP under bearish pressure.
  • Traders are keeping the GBP/USD in the middle this week after a mild bounce from the last major swing low into 1.2950 ahead of the BoE’s showing this Thursday.
  • A flubbed rate hike this week from the BoE could send the Sterling back into new yearly lows.
