GBP tracks peers on the day – Scotiabank

Source Fxstreet

Pound Sterling (GBP) is softer on the session, in line with its G10 peers, Scotiabank's Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes. 

Short-term price patterns may be tilting negative

"There were no UK data reports today, leaving the pound to essentially track the general trend in the USD once again. UK pay and employment data tomorrow are, however, likely to bolster the case for only cautious easing steps from the BoE in the coming months, proving something of a cushion for the pound."

"GBP gains may be slowing. The broader bull trend looks solid but short-term price action suggests Cable has reached a minor peak at least just above 1.30. Loss of support at 1.2955 will trigger a little more weakness intraday and tilt the daily pattern of price action a little more negative potentially."
