GBPUSD – Retail FX trading crowds continue buying aggressively into British Pound weakness, and a contrarian view of ‘herd’ sentiment keeps us watching for further GBP declines.

Trade Implications – GBPUSD: Our trader sample shows that GBPUSD long positions outnumber short positions by 2 to 1—nearly 70 percent long. Such clearly one-sided sentiment often coincides with important turns in price action, but those sentiment extremes are only clear in hindsight.

We will remain focused on British Pound selling opportunities absent a material change in positions.
