British Pound/US Dollar

GBPUSD – Increasingly indecisive British Pound/US Dollar positioning has left our forex trading strategies effectively flat the GBP/USD. The ratio of long to short positions in the GBPUSD stands at 1.02 as nearly 51% of traders are long. Yesterday, the ratio was at 1.47 as 60% of open positions were long. In detail, long positions are 25.9% lower than yesterday and 16.0% stronger since last week. Short positions are 6.5% higher than yesterday and 28.4% stronger since last week. Open interest is 12.8% weaker than yesterday and 29.0% above its monthly average. The jump in short interest and a wave of profit taking on longs suggests that the GBP/USD may continue to rally through near-term trade.
