CABLE: GBPUSD has edged lower in Asia-Pacific dealing, with the USD moving
higher in the main. GBP last 1.3365, 15 pips or so lower on the session.
- Reports have suggested that the latest round of Brexit discussions have
yielded little in the way of breakthroughs, with no movement noted re: the major
hurdles in discussions.
- Elsewhere BoE Gov Carney was cautious re: Brexit, offering little new in terms
of insight into MonPol.
- The second estimate of UK Q1 GDP will hit on Friday, with analysts looking for
no deviation from the initial Q1 release, which was of course disappointing.
- Cable's failure to deal with 1.3490-1.3500 resistance on Tuesday put the
downside under pressure again. With the subsequent loss of 1.3386 support,
Wednesday also saw the 76.4% Fibo retrace level at 1.3346 and the swing target
at 1.3329 give way. This sees the mid December lows at 1.3303-1.3302 as next
protection lower. 1.3414-1.3448 provides the notable area of upside interest.
