"During the upcoming days, the UK will release its NIESR GDP estimate, whilst the BOE will have its monthly economic policy next Thursday, both events set to determinate if the GBP can extend its decline, despite being extremely oversold."
"Daily basis, the technical indicators maintain their strong bearish slopes in oversold territory, whilst the 20 SMA heads lower far above the current level, reflecting the strong negative momentum in the pair. Shorter term, the 4 hours chart shows that the 20 SMA continues to cap the upside, currently offering a dynamic resistance around 1.5260, whilst the Momentum indicator heads lower well below its 100 level and the RSI hovers around 26, all of which supports additional declines towards the 1.5000 figure."
