FXStreet (Mumbai) – The GBP/USD pair took out 1.5115 (50% of 1.5336-1.4895) in early Europe to clock a session low of 1.5098 levels.
Cable tracks EUR/USD
The spotlight remains on the EUR/USD pair today as well. The moves in the shared currency against the USD is guiding other majors. A dip in the cable witnessed in early Europe is in line with the minor weakness seen in the EUR/USD pair.
The cable could continue to track the EUR/USD pair ahead of the European opening bell and then may shift focus to EUR/GBP cross, since the common currency may find respite in weak stocks. Later today, the OPEC meeting and the NFP number could influence the FX markets.
