GBPUSD remains vulnerable following recent weakness. The pair Monday traded below an important S/T support at 1.3727, Sep 8 low, and extended losses further Wednesday. This has also resulted in a break of 1.3680, Aug 27 low and opens the important 1.3602/3572 support zone. Note that there is a triangle base at 1.3632 that also represents an important support - which has been tested post-Fed. Resistance is at 1.3773.
