GBP/USD recovers ground but remains vulnerable
FXStreet (Córdoba) - The GBP/USD managed to bounce from fresh 4-month lows and erased intraday gains as the dollar weakens across the board amid falling US yields.

In terms of technical levels, immediate resistances could be found at 1.6700 (psychological level), 1.6755 (Aug 12 low) and 1.6799/1.6800 (10-day SMA/psychological level).
