On the 3 hour chart we still have well formed bearish channel, which was disturbed with many adjustments during the first half of February. Expectation today are for the the bearish trend to continue towards next objective downwards 1.5298, if we see successful penetration of the nearest support at 1.5370, which the Sterling is currently testing. There are no economic events today for UK, therefore range trade should not be unexpected.

The value of RSI and MACD indicators are positive, quiet and in the overbought zone, while CCI is positive and climbing on the 1 hour chart, giving overall uncertain signals.
