GBP/USD briefly dips below 1.6800

FXStreet (Córdoba) - The GBP/USD briefly dipped below the 1.6800 mark to retest daily lows as the dollar strengthened slightly in the wake of better-than-expected US jobless claims data.

US jobless claims rose 2,000 to 304,000 in the week ended April 11, beating expectations of 315,000. The GBP/USD dipped to a session low of 1.6796 but quickly bounced back above 1.6800 to trade around 1.6810, up 0.09% on the day. The GBP/USD is staging a pullback from a fresh 4 ½-year high of 1.6841 scored Thursday in the aftermath of solid UK employment figures released the previous day.

GBP/USD technical levels

In terms of technical levels, the GBP/USD could find immediate supports at 1.6790 (Apr 17 low), 1.6730 (10-day SMA) and 1.6700 (psychological level). On the other hand, resistances are seen at 1.6841 (Apr 17 high), 1.6876 (Nov 2009 high) and 1.6900 (psychological level).
