Near-term range’s high at 1.2315, offers initial barrier, while regain of 1.2350/1.2400 would reduce the downside risk.

GBP/USD
The larger picture shows the pair entrenched within 1.5500/1.5760 range, with 200 day SMA keeping the upside protected, while daily studies showing slight improvement. Hourly outlook, however, holds positive tone, as last Friday’s rally touched psychological 1.5700 barrier, with series of higher highs, seeing potential for possible attack at the upper range boundaries. Corrective action should ideally find ground at 1.5640 zone, otherwise, risk of losing 1.5600 handle and possible revisiting 1.5570/50 support zone, would be likely near-term scenario.
