More up-side expected | 22 October 2013

Despite signs of weakness and the current pull-back the GBP/USD remains in a short/medium-term up-trend, which will probably continue higher. Today Non-Farm Payrolls are released and expected to cause a lot of volatility, nevertheless an extension of the dominant trend higher is the most probable outcome, with the significant 1.62525 resistance highs providing an initial target. The current pull-back may not full-fill my previous targets of 1.6040 to the down-side - which in retrospect were a little overdone - and are more likely to fall to 1.6100, at the level of the 45° trend-line, with a recovery expected, thereafter as the main trend resumes and rises back up to 1.62525.
