GBPUSD Technical Analysis: The British pound is currently benefiting from the continued recovery of the British economy, especially after the release of positive industrial and services production data this week.
Conversely, the limited decline in US momentum continues with the release of US retail sales data later today, increasing caution.
This balance has created volatility in the market, but it remains positive in favor of the pound unless US surprises emerge that support the dollar.
