GBP/USD could find some nascent stability, but only temporarily – TDS

Consolidation is likely to be superficial and temporary

The Bank of England has announced the start of a temporary Quantitative Easing (QE) program targeting long duration Gilts, and has delayed the start of its Gilts sale program until the end of October.

Stability around 1.07 for cable would be a winbut ultimately tactical, with 1.0520/1.0350 key support and 1.0931 resistance key above.”
