GBP/USD: Above 1.5970, pair would target 1.6425/40 - Commerzbank


Forex Special (Barcelona) - Pound's sharp rally witnessed on Monday has extended on Tuesday's European session, and the pair reached levels above 1.5900, approaching 1.5970 level which, if broken, could open the path towards 1.6425/40, says Karen Jones, technical analyst at Commerzbank.

If the Pound manages to break above 1.5970, next target would be 1.6425/40, according to Jones: "The market has eroded the 55 week moving average together with the top of the channel. Should the market manage to clear 1.5970 we will have to assume a further upside target of 1.6425/40 is engaged."

Bearish moves are expected to find support at 1.5665/75 and 1.5336, says Jones: "Dips lower are expected to find nearby support at 1.5665/75 and be contained by the base of its 2 month upchannel at 1.5336, and while this holds an upside bias remains."
