GBP/USD bearish below 1.70 handle

FXStreet (Guatemala) - GBP/USD is trading at 1.6992, up 0.10% on the day, having posted a daily high at 1.7003 and low at 1.6973.

GBP/USD remains in a tight range sub the 1.70 handle and the GBP/USD short-term technicals are looking bearish according to Eric Theoret, Currency Strategist at Scotiabank. “Momentum indicators highlight acceleration. An RSI at 40 provides for further downside before reaching oversold levels. A meaningful break of the 50 day MA will shift the focus to the 100 day MA at 1.6850."
