FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Pound has been rejected at 1.6355 at London session opening times and dipped below the consolidation range formed in Asian session, to extend the near-term retreat from 1.6550 to levels right above 1.6300.

On the downside, below 1.6300/15 (day lows), the pair might find support at 1.6260/70 (May 26 low/intra-day low) and 1.6145/50 (uptrend support line from May 2010 lows). Resistance levels lie at 1.6350 (day high), and above here, 1.6400 area (intra-day level) and 1.6500 (Jun 1 high).

The FXMarketAlerts Team sees a potential, buying area here for a potential corrective bounce: "Unwind off 1.6545 has now reached the 1.63~ previous break; feasible buying level for return through the 1.63-5 bracket. Overnight trade is balanced here; no immediate pressure on the lows."
