- GBP/USD bears are meeting demand at a 61.8% ratio support area.
- Bulls are in control front side of bullish trend into he Fed.
Sterling moved out of consolidation in the later part of the New York morning and is finding demand at a daily support area on the charts. However, at 1.1900, the pair is remaining precariously close to recent trend lows ahead of Wednesday's expected Fed 25bp hike.

GBP/USD is still on the front side of the bullish trend and above last month's highs. Considering the long squeeze into the breakout traders of early July, at the 61.8% ratio, there is a case for the upside. However, it depends on the Fed.
