• GBP/USD slipped lower  on Thursday as stronger greenback offset upbeat  UK GDP data.

• Dollar firmed after U.S. President Donald Trump calmed market anxiety over potential U.S. military action against Iran.

• Britain’s economy expanded more than expected in November, supported by a return to full production at Jaguar Land Rover following a cyberattack that disrupted the carmaker and its suppliers.

• Gross domestic product rose 0.3% month-on-month   the fastest pace since June   after contracting 0.1% in October, official data showed on Thursday.

•  Investors continued to almost fully price in two quarter point interest rate cuts by the BoE this year.

•   Immediate resistance is located at 1.3445(50%fib), any close above will push the pair towards 1.3481(50%fib)

•  Strong support is seen at 1.3363(50%  fib) and break below could take the pair towards 1.3332(Lower BB).

  Recommendation: Good to sell around 1.3400 with stop loss of 1.3480 and target price of 1.3320
