GBP/USD denying the descending channel
FXstreet.com (London) - GBP/USD has spiked up breaching the 1.5970 level and eyes 1.5999 resistance as the next key hurdle.
The USD has been sold off across the board and is slightly offered as markets snap at profits with oil on the bounce as well as technical levels in EUR and JPY taken. Moves across the board will be nervous ahead of the data flows that are coming up later on in the week that include the BoE and NFP’s at the end of the week.
