  • The GBP/USD pair declined on   Thursday, as the British pound found strong selling interest after campaign on Britain's referendum on EU membership entered its final week and the latest polling showed the "Leave" camp in front.
     
  • Polls for London's Evening Standard newspaper and retail brokers IG.com gave 3 and 6 point leads to the leave camp ahead of next Thursday's vote.
     
  • The pair low at 1.4409 in the mid-morning US session, before recovering to trade at 1.4065 levels.
