A break below key support with follow-through could prompt an aggressive selloff as traders lose faith in the pair’s upside potential – at least for now. Conversely, a recovery from the floor could stave off a rapid decline with traders eyeing the next level of resistance at 0.9039.

However, these technical set ups could be in danger of being derailed by sporadic Brexit-related developments that have been a key catalyst behind GBP’s price action. Therefore, traders may hesitate to add exposure or enter positions until more clarity is given to the entangled political debacle we call Brexit.
