GBPUSD traded flat into the Monday close. Last week's gains exposed resistance at 1.3892, Sep 3 high. The level remains intact though and a break is required to confirm a resumption of the recovery that started Aug 20. This would open 1.3958 next, Aug 4 high ahead of a key resistance at 1.3983, Jul 30 high. On the downside, 1.3727 marks initial key support, Sep 8 low. A break would instead signal a resumption of bearish pressure.
