GBPUSD is holding on to its latest gains. Resistance at 1.2545, the Jun 2 high, was cleared last week. This signals scope for a continuation higher near-term and attention is on 1.2592, a Fibonacci retracement. Clearance of this level would expose key resistance at 1.2680, the May 10 high. Initial firm support has been defined at 1.2369, the Jun 5 low. A break would reinstate a bearish theme.
