[WindsorBrokers]

EUR/USD

Trades just under 1.40 barrier after support was found at 1.3854 and fresh strength briefly broke above 1.40. The latter still acts as strong resistance, though, near-term studies remain positive, and while 1.3854 underpins, scope is seen for fresh attempt through 1.4000/35 to signal an upside resumption towards 1.4100 next.

Res: 1.4002, 1.4035, 1.4050, 1.4100
Sup: 1.3963, 1.3920, 1.3854, 1.3839





GBP/USD

Attempts to form near-term double bottom at 1.5975, as fresh strength remains supported at 1.6050. Break above 1.6100 barrier would signal further extension towards 1.6137 barrier, break of which is needed to confirm and expose 1.6200 next. Below 1.6050, however, weakens immediate outlook.
