GBPUSD spiked higher following Thursday's BOE rate decision. Price has traded through the 20-day EMA at 1.3309 and attention is on resistance at 1.3370, the Nov 30 high that was probed Thursday. The break of the 20-day EMA is a key short-term bullish development as it suggests scope for a stronger corrective bounce, potentially towards 1.3439, the 50-day EMA and 1.3514, the Nov 18 high. Initial support is at 1.3242.
