EUR/USD
Maintains strong bull trend off 1.4020 higher platform, after pullback from 1.4350 previous high, as mentioned in yesterday’s update, found good support at 1.4250/40 zone. Fresh strength through 1.4350 is currently probing 1.44 level. Hourly studies are supportive but deeply in overbought zone. Possible correction would find initial support at 1.4350, with 1.4320, yesterday’s intraday highs / 20 day MA, expected to contain, to keep bulls in play. Above 1.44 to focus 1.4450/1.45 near-term.

GBP/USD
Breaks above the recent 1.6362/1.6260 consolidative band, to test 1.6400, 22 Mar previous peak. Near-term bulls are firmly in play, with clearance of 1.6400 to target 1.6456, Jan 2010 peak. However, hourly conditions are entering overbought zone, and corrective pullback may precede fresh rally. Immediate support lies at 1.6362, ahead of 20 day MA dynamic support at 1.6329, and day’s low at 1.6314. Where bulls should re-assert. Key near-term support lies at 1.6260 zone, and only break here would delay in favor of stronger pullback.
