Updated daily direction for GBPUSD looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 1.19763 (S1).
Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 1.2143 or trades above daily pivot 1.20597 while to the downside, the daily low of 1.2016 and 1.19763 (S1) as key support levels.
