The British pound rose after Theresa May’s agreement
The GBPUSD surged this morning as the British Prime Minister May offers to make investigations as the market fears a hard BREXIT phenomena.
The GBPUSD rose mainly 2% to touch 1.2325 high but might follow a decline as negotiations shifts advantage toward the European Union knowing that May accepted to vote for the separation from the EU. Thus the GBPUSD might expand its bearish move toward 1.2022 and 1.1950 once it breaks the strong point 1.2075.
However, hard BREXIT risk might have receded as most parliament members see an EU friendly image and the GBPUSD needs to break the minor resistance point 1.2365 in order to pave its way toward next resistance levels 1.2405 and 1.2475.
