Sterling's decline gathers some momentum on resurfacing no-deal Brexit risk. The Pound is currently followed by New Zealand Dollar as the second weakest. Canadian Dollar is the third worst performing so far, follow oil price lower. On the other hand, Yen and Dollar and trading firmer today, despite rebound in European stocks. Overall, though, trading is relatively subdued with US and Canada on holiday. Technically, GBP/CHF's break of 1.2034 resistance turned support suggests that choppy rebound from 1.1630 has completed at 1.2222, after rejection by 1.2259 resistance. Deeper decline is now in favor to 1.1849 support. Break will confirm that the range pattern from 1.2259 has started a falling leg to 1.1630 support. EUR/GBP's break of 0.8974 suggests completion of the corrective fall fro m0.9175, ahead of 0.8864 support. Further rise would be seen back to 0.9148/9175 resistance zone. 138.24 support in GBP/USD and 1.3053 support in GBP/USD would be watched to confirm more underlying Sterling weakness.
