Forex Flash: GBP/USD to fail at 1.6167 resistance – Commerzbank

By FXstreet.com April 24, 2012, 02:31:00 AM EDT

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Resistance at 1.6167 is the October 2011 high and 61.8% Fib of 2011-2012 move. "We suspect that this will hold the initial test and provoke failure", wrote Commerzbank analyst Karen Jones, pointing to initial support at 1.5984, followed by key downside area at 1.5874, and then, the 200-day MA at 1.5843.

"Above 1.6170 and we will have to capitulate and just go with it. This would introduce scope to 1.6425/the 78.6% retracement of the move down from the 2011 peak", Jones adds.
