FxWirePro: GBP/USD rallies above 1.2500 but reversal is likely

  • The GBP/USD pair rose on Tuesday as signs of growing pressure on the government to give parliament a greater say in the final deal to leave the European Union, pulled the pound up from session lows.
     
  • Pound's gains back towards $1.25 from an earlier low of $1.2347 were driven chiefly by junior Brexit minister David Jones in a statement said that parliament would be given a meaningful vote on the deal.
     
  • However, further upside is expected to be limited as the pound presents negative tone and is set to resume downward momentum against the dollar.
     
  • To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 1.2570, a break above this level would expose the pair towards next resistance level at 1.2600.
     
  • To the downside, strong support can be seen 1.2461, a break below at this level will open the door towards next level at 1.2328.
