Today pound is trading above moving averages and middle band, RSI is also bullish so initial bias is bullish.

GBP/USD ANALYSIS 8/2/2013

Price opened below pivot point so it is initially bearish, price is below short and long term SMA's so it is bearish, it is below middle band and rsi is also below midpoint. so it is bearish today. no trade for me today.
On fundamental side both UK is doing good, and USA is doing great.

GBP/USD ANALYSIS 8/1/2013

TECHNICAL STUDIES: DAILY PIVOT POINT, MOVING AVERAGES, BOLLINGER BANDS, RSI, FIBONACCI RETRACEMENT 

Price opened above pivot point today so it is initially bullish sign but it has dropped below pivot point at the time of typing this analysis. SMA5 has made dead cross with SMA10, price is below SMA5,10 & 15. Price has dropped below long term averages SMA50&100 so moving averages are bearish.

Cable has tested middle band and is above middle band, but it looks weak weak support. Bollinger bands are contracting, RSI is below its midpoint. 61.8% FIB of 1.575-1.4812 proved strong resistance, fall from there could not get support on 50%, price fell below 38% but didnot close under it. So I will be looking this leve 1.5168.

FIB 1.4811-1.5432, its 50% level 1.5119 is also one important level for today.

Overall I am bearish today.

Important levels to watch today

Support 1.5168,1.5119,

DAILY DAY END FOREX REVIEW 7/25/2013

PAIR:GBPUSD

TECHNICAL REVIEW: 

Today price opened at 1.5311 below PP made low of 1.5261, and high of 1.5432. Although it broke 1.54 resistance but closed below it.

FUNDAMENTAL REVIEW:

GBP: GDP data was released of UK. It was 0.6% as forecast 

USD: Core durable goods order at 0.0% against forecast of 0.5%

USD: Unemployment claims at 343K against forecast 339K

USD: Durable goods order m/m at 4.2% against forecast of 1.1% 

CONCLUSION:

In my view GBP long is favorable as British economy is showing signs of improvement.

USD strength is coming from taper expectations, in my point of view data don't support early taper.

Technically GBPUSD is above bollinger bands, daily RSI is above 50, most of moving averages I follow are below price, so i am bullish on GBPUSD.

Today it opened at 1.5365, made high of 1.5389 and low of  1.5287. It got resistance from 61.8% fib level and was supported at 50% fib of 1.575-1.4812. Support was also provided by 50d average at 1.5287.
There is event risk of preliminary British GDP data tomorrow. Only good data can support price and will take it above 61.8% fib.
Today range: 100 pips.
