Talking Points
- GBP/USD Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred
- Doji Suggests Reluctance From The Bulls
- Short Body Candles Denotes Indecision On H4

Selling interest is likely to be renewed at the 1.6170 ceiling. While a daily close below 1.5880 would potentially open the way for a descent towards the mid-September 2013 low near 1.5770.
