Intraday downtrend, pausing after late-NY bounce · RSI 50 · price 1.32274

Tight range 1.3222–1.3234 below the 61.8% retrace of NY sell-off.

Price was rejected just under the 1.3255 Asian high in the first hour of NY. It then slid to a 1.3202 day low near the 1.3200 June-low area as US yields held above 5%. A late-NY squeeze stalled at the 61.8% fib (1.3234), and early Asia is compressing around 1.3227 above the 1.3222 range floor, with ATR down near 4 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3255

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 1.3234 (61.8% fib) breaks the post-spike cap and exposes the 1.3255 Asian high
  • Loss of the 1.3222 range floor puts the 1.3202 day low and 1.3200 psych back in play
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT could break the current compression during London open

23:31 UTC

Intraday downtrend paused, flat in early Asia · RSI 51 · price 1.32283

Lower highs from 1.3255; rebound off 1.3202, now a tight 1.3222–1.3234 range.

The NY sell-off ran from the 1.3252 NY open high to the 1.3202 session low near the June low area, with US yields holding above 5%. A late-NY rebound has stalled at the 1.3234 post-NY high, near the 61.8% fib of that sell-off, and early Asia is compressing in a 1.3222–1.3234 range with RSI(14) flat at ~51 and ATR(14) near 4 pips. No setup is in play.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 post-NY high clears the 61.8% fib of the NY sell-off and opens the 1.3252 NY open high
  • Break below the 1.3222 range low exposes the 1.3202 session low and the 1.3200 June low area
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT, then US ADP and core PCE at 12:15–12:30 UTC, could materially shift this read

23:16 UTC

Intraday downtrend, pausing in consolidation · RSI 48 · price 1.32257

Lower highs from 1.3252; tight Asia range 1.3222–1.3234 capped at the 61.8% fib.

The NY session drove cable from the 1.3252 London high to a 1.3202 NY low as US yields held at 2004-era highs. The late bounce was rejected at the 61.8% fib near 1.3234. Early Asia session is coiling in a 12-pip range between 1.3222 and 1.3234 around the 50% retracement, with RSI(14) neutral at 48 and ATR compressed to about 4 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 range high / 61.8% fib opens the 1.3252 London high
  • Loss of the 1.3222 range low puts the 1.3202 NY low back in play
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT and US Core PCE at 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

23:01 UTC

Intraday downtrend, rebound stalled · RSI 46 · price 1.32263

Tight range 1.3222–1.3234 after bounce off 1.3202 session low.

Cable dropped from the 1.3252 prior high to a 1.3202 session low during NY hours as 10y yields above 5% kept the dollar bid. The rebound stalled with a rejection at 1.3234, near the 61.8% fib of that drop. Price has been confined to a 1.3222–1.3234 range through the rollover into the Asia session, RSI(14) neutral at 46 and ATR near 5 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • A break below the 1.3222 range low exposes the 1.3202 session low and the 1.3200 pivot
  • An M15 close above the 1.3234 range high clears the 61.8% fib and opens the 1.3252 prior high
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT and US core PCE at 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

22:46 UTC

Flat after NY selloff, rebound stalled · RSI 53 · price 1.32272

Tight 1.3222–1.3234 range above 1.3202 day low.

The NY selloff took price from the 1.3252 NY high to a 1.3202 day low as the dollar stayed bid on 5%+ Treasury yields. A late-NY rebound has since stalled into a 1.3222–1.3234 range. Price is at the 50% retracement of that selloff in early Asia, RSI(14) is neutral near 53, and ATR is only about 5 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 1.3234 range top exposes the 1.3252 NY high
  • Break of 1.3222 range low reopens the 1.3202 day low and the 1.3200 handle
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT, then US ADP and core PCE at 12:15/12:30 UTC, could break the Asian range

22:32 UTC

Down-leg paused, sideways after rebound · RSI 50 · price 1.3227

Tight 1.3222–1.3234 range after squeeze off NY low.

A USD bid on 5%+ Treasury yields drove GBPUSD from the 1.3252 London high to a 1.3202 NY low. A double bottom just above 1.3200 preceded a late-NY squeeze that retraced half that decline (50% fib). Price is now compressing in a 1.3222–1.3234 range into the Asia session, with ATR shrunk to around 5 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3222 range low puts the 1.3202 NY low and the 1.3200 handle back in focus
  • M15 close above the 1.3234 range high opens the path back toward the 1.3252 London high
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT (f/c 0.4% QoQ) could break the range; US Core PCE follows at 12:30 GMT

22:17 UTC

Rebound off NY low, flat in early Asia · RSI 51 · price 1.32295

Triple bottom at 1.3202-1.3205, tight 1.3222-1.3234 range after rally.

Dollar strength on 5%+ US yields took GBPUSD from the 1.3252 london high to a 1.3202 ny low. Three tests of 1.3202-1.3205 held, and a sharp late-NY rally reclaimed 1.3226. Price is now pinned in a 12-pip band between the 1.3222 range low and the 1.3234 range high into the Asia session, holding above the 38.2% fib of the rebound.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 range high opens the path back toward the 1.3252 london high
  • Loss of the 1.3222 range low puts the 1.3202 ny low and 1.3200 back in play
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT, around the London open, could break the range; US ADP/core PCE later Wed is the larger driver

22:02 UTC

Intraday downtrend, rebound stalling · RSI 51 · price 1.32301

Lower highs on the day; tight range after the NY-session low.

Yield-driven USD strength took GBPUSD to a 1.3202 ny low during NY hours. The 18:00 UTC rebound was rejected at the 61.8% retrace of the midday high–ny low leg, which sits at the 1.3234 range top. Price is now boxed between the 1.3222 range floor and 1.3234 into the early Asia session, with RSI(14) neutral near 51 and ATR around 5 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 range top opens the path to the 1.3252 midday high
  • Failure to hold the 1.3222 range floor and rebound trendline exposes the 1.3202 ny low and 1.3200
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT, then US core PCE at 12:30 UTC, could materially shift this read

21:47 UTC

Downtrend paused, flat rebound · RSI 50 · price 1.3227

Lower high at 1.3252, bounce off 1.3202 stalling near fib 61.8.

GBPUSD slid from the 1.3252 london high to a 1.3202 session low in NY as US yields above 5.2% kept the dollar bid. An 18:00 UTC impulse lifted it back to the 50% retracement, and late-NY highs have repeatedly stalled at 1.3233–1.3234, the fib 61.8. Price is now holding just above the 1.3223 rollover low, with RSI flat near 50.

Support: 1.3223, 1.3202, 1.3200

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252, 1.3258

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above 1.3234 (fib 61.8) would break the late-NY cap and expose the 1.3252 london high, then the 1.3258 prior high
  • Loss of the 1.3223 rollover low would reopen the 1.3202 session low and the 1.3200 round number
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT, during the London open, could shift the read; US ADP and core PCE follow at 12:15 and 12:30 UTC

21:17 UTC

Downtrend in window, basing after NY low · RSI 52 · price 1.32228

Lower highs from 1.3252 to a 1.3202 base; post-NY compression 1.3222–1.3234.

GBP/USD slid from the 1.3252 London high to a 1.3202 NY low as the US-yield-driven dollar bid persisted. Demand held that base, just above 1.3200 psych, twice before an 18:00 UTC jump to 1.3234, where the rebound stalled at the 61.8% fib of the London high–NY low leg. After the rollover gap, price sits back on the 1.3222 range floor with RSI(14) near 52 and ATR around 7 pips.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

21:02 UTC

Intraday downtrend, late-NY rebound stalling · RSI 61 · price 1.32305

Tight post-rebound consolidation 1.3225–1.3234 under 61.8% fib.

Cable printed a session low at 1.3202 in NY hours as the US yield surge extended. A sharp late-NY impulse broke the 1.3203–1.3216 base, but the rebound has since compressed between the 1.3225 range floor and 1.3234, capped at the 61.8% fib of the drop from the 1.3252 London high. RSI(14) is near 61 and ATR(14) about 7 pips in thin post-NY trade.

Support: 1.3225, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 61.8% fib opens the path back toward the 1.3252 London high
  • Failure to hold the 1.3225 range floor puts the 1.3202 session low and 1.3200 back in play
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT and quarter-end flows can reset the Asian range
  • US ADP and core PCE (12:15–12:30 UTC Wed) could materially shift this read

20:47 UTC

Rebound from NY low, stalling at 61.8% · RSI 61 · price 1.32318

Tight post-spike range 1.3225–1.3234 after late-NY lift off 1.3202.

The yield-led USD bid took GBPUSD from the 1.3252 london high to a 1.3202 ny low. Buyers held that low three times before an 18:00 UTC impulse of roughly 22 pips. Price is now boxed between the 1.3225 range base and the 1.3234 spike high, which sits on the 61.8% retracement of the drop, heading into a quiet Asia session.

Support: 1.3225, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3234 spike high / 61.8% opens the 1.3252 london high
  • Loss of the 1.3225 range base puts the 1.3202 ny low and 1.3200 back in play

20:17 UTC

Downtrend paused, late-NY rebound stalling · RSI 60 · price 1.32267

Range break off 1.3202 day low, now a tight 10-pip range.

The US-yield-led selloff during NY hours bottomed at the 1.3202 day low, just above 1.3200. A 21-pip range break in late NY lifted price off that base. GBPUSD is now holding a tight 1.3225 range low to 1.3234 range high band, with the range high capped at the 61.8% fib of the London-NY drop.

Support: 1.3225, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

Lower high at NY open, low at 1.3202, bounce capped at the 61.8% fib.

Price was rejected at the 1.3252 NY open high, just under the 1.3255 Asian high, and NY extended the slide to a 1.3202 day low as US yields stayed bid. The 18:00 UTC spike off the lows stalled at 1.3234, the 61.8% fib of the sell-off. Price is now consolidating above the 1.3224 range floor after the NY close.

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252, 1.3255

Intraday downtrend, sharp late-NY rebound · RSI 58 · price 1.32279

Double bottom at 1.3202 broke the 1.3216 lower high; rebound stalling at 61.8%.

GBP slid from the 1.3252 London high to a 1.3202 NY session low as US yields and DXY pressed higher. A 21-pip bar at 18:00 UTC completed a double bottom and cleared the 1.3216 lower high. Late in NY, price is holding above the 1.3222 swing low and pausing under the 1.3234 rebound high, which sits at the 61.8% retrace of the London-to-NY slide.

Intraday downtrend, late-NY rebound · RSI 54 · price 1.3228

Lower highs from 1.3252; range break off 1.3202 low, stalling at 61.8%.

GBP slid from the 1.3252 NY high to a 1.3202 session low as US 10y yields above 5.2% lifted DXY to its two-month high. A late-NY range break out of the 1.3204–1.3216 base ran to the 1.3234 bounce high, the 61.8% fib of that leg. Price is now consolidating near 1.3228 with RSI(14) neutral around 54.

Support: 1.3222, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

Intraday downtrend, bouncing off day low · RSI 57 · price 1.32249

Lower highs from 1.3252 London high; spike reclaim of 1.3221 capped at 61.8% retrace.

GBP/USD slid to a 1.3202 day low during NY hours as US 10Y yields pushed above 5.2%, just shy of 1.3200. A 22-pip spike at 18:00 UTC reclaimed the 1.3221 London low. The bounce high at 1.3234 met the 61.8% fib of the 1.3252–1.3202 leg, and price is now drifting at 1.3225, around the EMA50.

Support: 1.3221, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

Intraday downtrend, sharp late-NY rebound · RSI 63 · price 1.32289

Lower highs from 1.3252 into a 1.3202 NY low, then a range break higher stalling at the 61.8% fib.

NY session pushed the downtrend from the 1.3252 lower high to a 1.3202 ny low. US 10Y yields above 5.2% kept the USD bid, and the 1.3200 psych level held. Late NY, after London close and ahead of Waller, price broke out of the 1.3202–1.3216 base with a 20-pip bar, and the move met rejection at the 1.3234 spike high, the 61.8% fib of the leg. It now sits near the 50% at 1.3227, just above the london low at 1.3221.

Support: 1.3221, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3234, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • Fed's Waller speaking at 19:00 UTC now: any pushback on an October hike could extend the rebound, and hawkish remarks would put the 1.3221 london low under pressure
  • M15 close above the 1.3234 spike high / 61.8% fib shifts focus to the 1.3252 lower high
  • Failure to hold the 1.3221 london low returns focus to the 1.3202 ny low and the 1.3200 psych level
  • UK Q2 GDP final at 06:00 GMT Wed, then ADP and US core PCE at 12:15–12:30 UTC Wed, could materially reset the intraday range

Intraday downtrend, late-NY rebound · RSI 54 · price 1.32265

Lower highs from 1.3252 into a 1.3202–1.3216 base, base broken higher.

USD-yield-driven selling took price from the 1.3252 london high to a 1.3202 day low, where three tests held through NY hours. A single 21-pip bar in late NY broke the 1.3216 range top, and price now sits at the 50% retrace of the london high–day low fib near 1.3227, just under the 1.3230 spike high. RSI(14) has recovered to 54, and price is barely above EMA50.

Support: 1.3216, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3230, 1.3245, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • Holding above the 1.3216 range top keeps the range break intact. A return inside exposes the 1.3202 day low.
  • An M15 close above the 1.3230 spike high (61.8% fib ~1.3233) opens the 1.3245 swing high, then the 1.3252 london high.
  • Fed's Waller at 19:00 UTC could materially shift this read.
  • UK Q2 GDP final (06:00 UTC) and US ADP/core PCE (12:15–12:30 UTC) Wed are the next scheduled catalysts.

GBP/USD slid through NY from the 1.3252 London high to a double bottom at 1.3202 as US 10y yields held above 5.2%. A 21-pip spike at 18:00 UTC reclaimed the London low at 1.3221, and price is now stalling at the 50% retrace (1.3227), just under the fib 61.8 at 1.3233, late in the NY session.

Support: 1.3221, 1.3202

Resistance: 1.3233, 1.3252

Intraday downtrend, late-NY bounce testing it · RSI 54 · price 1.32262

Lower highs from 1.3252 NY high; base at 1.3202–1.3216 broken higher.

NY session sold from the 1.3252 NY high to a 1.3202 session low as firm US yields kept USD bid, with the 1.3200 psych handle holding. A single-bar 18:00 UTC spike lifted price out of the 1.3202–1.3216 base to a 1.3227 spike high (50% of the NY drop) and back onto the 1.3221 London low, just above EMA20/EMA50 with RSI(14) neutral near 54.

Resistance: 1.3227, 1.3233, 1.3252

  • M15 close above the 1.3233 swing high (61.8% of the NY drop fib) reopens the 1.3252 NY high and breaks the lower-high chain
  • Failure to hold the 1.3221 London low and a slip back under the 1.3216 range top puts the 1.3202 session low and 1.3200 psych back in focus
  • US ADP/core PCE and UK Q2 GDP final on Wed are the next scheduled risk after Waller

Downtrend, stalling above 1.3200 · RSI 43 · price 1.32132

Lower highs from 1.3252; late-NY base 1.3202–1.3216.

The London high at 1.3252 capped just under the Asian range top. The NY selloff, driven by US 10y yields at 2004 highs despite the soft JOLTS print, broke the london low at 1.3221 and set a session low at 1.3202. Late NY has compressed into a 1.3202–1.3216 range just above the 1.3200 round number, with RSI(14) near 43 and ATR about 8 pips.

Support: 1.3202, 1.3200

Resistance: 1.3216, 1.3221, 1.3252

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3216 range top opens a retest of the london low at 1.3221, the 38.2% of the selloff fib

Lower highs since London high; late-NY base at 1.3202–1.3204.

NY hours broke the London low at 1.3222 and extended to a 1.3202 session low as the USD yield bid (10Y above 5.2%) outweighed soft JOLTS and confidence data. After London close, price has held a tight 1.3204–1.3216 band just above the 1.3200 psych level, capped by the descending line from the 1.3252 London high.

NY session reversed from the 1.3252 ny high and broke the 1.3222 london low. The drop tagged a 1.3202 session low as 5.2%+ US yields kept USD bid. Late NY is now compressing between 1.3202 and the 1.3216 lower high, just above the 1.3200 psych level.

LH/LL sequence from the 1.3252 NY high; shallow bounce off the session low fading.

The early-NY push to 1.3252, a retest of the Asian high, met rejection. Price then slid through the London low at 1.3221 to a 1.3202 session low as UST yields kept USD bid despite soft JOLTS and confidence data. After London close, the bounce stalled at 1.3216, below the 38.2% fib of the leg, and price is drifting back toward the 1.3200 psych level with RSI(14) near 32.

London broke below the 1.3229 asian low. NY was then rejected at the 1.3252 ny high and the NY sell-off ran to a 1.3202 session low, with USD firm on 5%+ yields despite the soft JOLTS print. Price is stalling just above the 1.3200 round number with RSI(14) near 31, and the 1.3221 london low lines up with the 38.2% retrace.

Lower highs and lower lows; London low broken during NY hours.

The midday rejection at the 1.3252 London high started a lower-high sequence. That sequence broke the 1.3221 London low in NY hours, and the 1.3221 level sits at the 38.2% fib of the drop. USD firmness shrugged off the soft JOLTS print, and the selling extended to a 1.3202 session low. RSI(14) sits near 26, with price pinned just above 1.3200 psych and the 1.3213 lower high capping the bounce along the descending trendline.

Lower highs from 1.3252; London low broken, session low at 1.3202.

Since the 1.3252 swing high at midday, GBPUSD has printed a chain of lower highs. The soft JOLTS print did not dent USD, and the NY session broke the London low at 1.3221. Price is now pressing the 1.3200 round number with a fresh session low at 1.3202 and RSI(14) near 24.

NY hours broke the London low at 1.3221 and printed a session low at 1.3205, as USD shrugged off the JOLTS miss on 5%+ Treasury yields. RSI(14) is near 31 with price under both EMAs, and the 1.3200 round number sits just below.

Lower highs and lower lows; London low broken in NY hours.

Rejection at the 1.3252 midday high at 12:00 UTC extended the lower-high chain from Monday's 1.3280 spike. NY hours then broke the London low at 1.3221 and printed a new session low at 1.3214 as USD stayed firm on 5%+ Treasury yields despite the soft JOLTS miss. RSI(14) near 31, with the 1.3200 round number the next reference below.

Resistance: 1.3221, 1.3233, 1.3252

Lower highs run from Monday's 1.3280 spike through the Asian range top near 1.3254 and the 1.3252 midday high. The midday drop swept the 1.3221 London low into a 1.3217 NY low, with the sweep high at 1.3233 capping since. The soft JOLTS print barely moved price with USD firm on yields, and price holds 1.3221-1.3233 below both EMAs.

Lower highs and lower lows since the 1.3280 Monday high. The 1.3252 lower high set at 12:00 UTC gave way to a 35-pip drop into a 1.3217 session low during the London-NY transition, with US yields above 5.2% keeping USD firm. The soft JOLTS print drew only a muted bounce, capped near 1.3233, roughly the 50% retrace of the 12:00 drop, and price is holding below EMA20 and EMA50.

Resistance: 1.3233, 1.3252, 1.3280

What it said to watch

The first hour of NY then swept the London low at 1.3221 to a 1.3217 session low before closing back above it.

Supply capped the London bounce at 1.3252, a lower high under the 1.3280 Monday high. The drop from 1.3252 into the first hour of NY set a session low at 1.3217 as the dollar held firm near DXY 101.50 ahead of JOLTS. Price is chopping just above that low, under the 1.3233 minor high, with RSI(14) at a neutral 44.

London broke below the Asian low to 1.3221. Price then rallied to a 1.3252 midday high just under the Asian range top, where a sharp rejection retraced about 70% of the London rally fib.

London broke the asian low at 1.3229 to a 1.3221 london low, then rallied to a 1.3252 session high. That rally was rejected sharply in the London-NY transition, and price is back at the 78.6% of the london rally fib.

Asia and London extended the slide from the 1.3280 Monday high to a London low at 1.3221. The rebound stalled at 1.3252 near the Asian high, keeping the lower-high line intact.

London made a false break below the 1.3229 Asian low, printing a 1.3221 session low, then built a HH/HL chain back to the 1.3255 Asian high. That area is also the 50% retracement of Monday's 1.3280–1.3221 drop. RSI(14) near 61 is not stretched, and the USD backdrop stays firm on >5% yields ahead of JOLTS.

Lower highs from 1.3280; London dipped below the Asian low, then reclaimed it.

Yield-driven USD demand extended Monday's fade from 1.3280. London broke the 1.3229 Asian low and printed a 1.3221 session low. Price has since reclaimed the Asian low and sits at EMA20, pressing the descending trendline near 1.3235 with RSI(14) at 45.

Resistance: 1.3241, 1.3255

What it said to watch

  • Close back below the 1.3229 asian low negates the reclaim and re-exposes the 1.3221 session low

Intraday downtrend, bounce stalling near EMA20 · RSI 46 · price 1.3233

Lower highs through London; Asian range low broken, now being retested.

Cable broke below the 1.3229–1.3255 Asian range in London, printing lower highs from the 1.3245 London high down to a 1.3221 session low. A firm USD on 5%+ Treasury yields drove the move, and the mixed BoE credit data made little difference. The late-morning bounce is back at the Asian low and EMA20. The descending trendline near 1.3237 and the 38.2% fib of Monday's drop around 1.3244 sit overhead.

Asian range broken to downside, LH/LL chain.

London broke the Asian low at 1.3229 and has printed lower highs under a descending trendline from 06:00 UTC. That extends the fade from Monday's 1.3280 high to a 1.3221 session low as USD firms on 5%+ UST yields ahead of JOLTS. RSI(14) near 32 is soft but not oversold, and the 1.3200 round number is the next level below.

Asian range broken to the downside, lower-high chain intact.

London cleared the Asian low at 1.3229 and is grinding to a fresh session low at 1.3224, extending the drop from Monday's 1.3280 high as 5%+ US yields keep USD firm.

Lower highs from 1.3280 Monday high; late-Asia marginal new low at 1.3238 below Monday NY low.

GBPUSD has faded from the 1.3280 Monday high as US 10y yields pushed above 5%. Late in the Asia session it rejected the 1.3255 asian high and dipped to a session low at 1.3238, just under Monday's NY low. The falling trendline off 1.3280 now caps near 1.3250.

Monday's rally to the 1.3280 monday high on hawkish BoE Ramsden comments has retraced about 85% in a lower-high sequence as US 10y yields above 5% firmed USD. Late Asia is printing a new session low at 1.3238 after a failed push to the 1.3255 asian high, with the 1.3231 monday low just below; RSI(14) near 34 and ATR(14) about 3.7 pips ahead of London open.

Monday's rally from the 1.3231 pre-London low topped at the 1.3280 day high in NY. A lower-high sequence then pulled price back to the 61.8% rally fib near 1.3250 as US 10y yields above 5% capped the BoE-driven GBP bid. Asia swept under the NY low to the 1.3243 asian low and is holding a tight 1.3243–1.3255 range on rising Asia lows, with RSI(14) neutral near 46 and ATR at about 4 pips.

Monday's London-NY rally from the 1.3231 monday low topped at 1.3280 after Ramsden's hike-leaning remarks, then faded as US 10y yields pushed above 5%.

Monday's London and NY sessions capped at the 1.3280 prior high as 5%+ US yields pinned the pair, and the late-NY drift gave way to an early-Asia dip that held at 1.3243, just above the 1.3240 NY low.
