- GBP/USD rose sharply on Thursday after UK retail sales data showed better than expected figures, apparently unaffected by Britain's vote to leave the European Union.
- However, the pair turned back in the early US session after failing to break resistance level 1.3174, as the pound ran out of strength against US dollar.
- The pair has to break resistance level at 1.3247 levels in order find any bullish momentum, unless until trend continues to be strongly bearish for this pair.
- To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 1.3174, a break above this level would expose the cable to next resistance level at 1.3247.
- To the downside immediate support can be seen at 1.3110, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.3050.
