This led me to look at the relationship to Fridays close on the <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2Zn4HaM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GBPUSD<\/a> and current price action, which in the chart above is showing that closing level is currently acting as resistance. The GBPUSD has traded below the 1.2220 level twice now as price action has been between Tuesdays high and Wednesdays low, which in themselves was an expansion of Mondays range. Keeping these levels on as we go into the US session and the US PMI data release will guide traders into whether the GBPUSD is likely to remain range bound or if the market makers and traders are going to have to reprice higher or lower into Thursdays close.<\/p><p>If the GBPJPY can hold above 164.80 I will be long biased on the pound crosses. A trade below that level and I will be looking for Mondays lows to be taken and a larger decline to ensue.<\/p><p>UK manufacturing production has eased to its lowest level since February 2021, and Japan\u2019s factory activity has slowed as June\u2019s flash PMI data shows the weakest expansion since February 2022.\u00a0<\/p><p>If we get a decent figure from the US this afternoon, it may tip the balance. Currently expectations are that the US manufacturing data comes in worse than May\u2019s reading but still relatively high at 56.0, whereas services PMI is slightly better.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a3eb27b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a3eb27b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-54067ae\" data-id=\"54067ae\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ee4fbc3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ee4fbc3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3tzpfOh\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"932\" height=\"483\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/rsz_us_dollar_index-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-30955\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-449c7718 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"449c7718\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-63af2c07\" data-id=\"63af2c07\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e0668d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e0668d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3tzpfOh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See real-time quotes<\/a> provided by our partner.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a8ba1ba elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a8ba1ba\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-09333e0\" data-id=\"09333e0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c81a76d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c81a76d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3tzpfOh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US dollar index<\/a> started the week with a small range due to the bank holiday in the USA.
