Back above 23.6% Fib level, 1.48-1.5 range intact

The pair is back above 1.4849, which is the 23.65 Fib Retracement level of the move from 1.5550-1.4633. It remains to be seen whether the pair manages to sustain above the same, although the rise in the UK gilt yields could help the pair stay above 1.4849.
