. GBP/USD - 1.5650 … The British pound found renewed interest buying at
1.5610 (just abv last Fri’s NY sup at 1.5608) at European opening n rose to a
near 2-month high at 1.5674 in European session y’day in tandem with euro’s
strength after hawkish comments fm Bundesbank b4 trading sideways in NY.

. Looking at the hourly n daily chart, recent series of higher lows n
higher highs fm Jul’s 3-year low at 1.4814 remains in progress n as current
hourly n daily indicators are rising, suggesting as long as 1.5608 sup holds,
one more rise to 1.5700/10 is likely, however, as bearish divergences wud appear
on hourly oscillators on such move, previous key daily res at 1.5753 (Jun 17
high) is expected to hold on 1st testing n yield a much-needed minor correction
later today or tomorrow.

. In view of the abv analysis, we’re cautiously selling cable on next
upmove in anticipation of a retreat to 1.5608/10, break wud confirm a top has
finally been made n yiled retrace. of intermediate rise fm 1.5423 to 1.5578
(minimum 38.2% r) n then twds 1.5549 (50% r) but sup at 1.5520 wud hold.
