GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Cable approaching 1.3300 key resistance after strong sell-off in Europe

  • The market is consolidating the early Europe sell-off and the 1.3300 handle acts as the immediate resistance.
  • The risk remains skewed to the downside as GBP/USD is trading below its 50, 100 and 200-period simple moving averages on the 4-hour and 15-minute chart.
