¡¡¡¡It sank to a low of $1.2073, making it the third
weakest currency, only slightly ahead of the NZD and
Norwegian Krome.
¡¡¡¡Analysis
¡¡¡¡The British pound broke down during the early part of
the trading session on Thursday, slipping through the low
of the shooting star during the day on Wednesday, and
that suggests that we could go lower shorting the pound.
¡¡¡¡However, we have had a little bit of a bounce back
during the trading session and that shows just how
resilient and tough the British pound is trying to be.
¡¡¡¡Keep in mind that this pair is sensitive to the risk
appetite of traders around the world, as the Japanese yen
is considered to be a ¡°safety currency based on the
current pandemic.¡±
¡¡¡¡Furthermore, the British pound of course has to deal
with the Brexit situation and all of the noise involving
the coronavirus numbers in the United Kingdom.
