GBP/USD dips back below 1.3500, but clings to daily gains

GBP/USD dipped back below the 1.35 mark following a short-lived advance during the New York session, which was helped by a broadly weaker dollar and lower levels of anxiety surrounding the Brexit.

Even though nothing has really changed from Friday to now - regarding the Brexit -  initial turmoil eased and the pound seized the opportunity to take back some of its sharp losses.

GBP/USD rose through 1.3500 to a weekly high of 1.3532, but lost momentum and retreated a tad over the last couple of hours. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.3492, up 1.14% on Wednesday.
