Dollar slips into the US equity opening- GBP/USD finally makes a move above 1.30

There is no fresh news of note to attach to the latest move lower in the dollar, but it could have something to do with some serious US election polls released a little earlier. One of those in particular now points to as much as a 56% chance of Harris wining the race. Now of course that might be unconnected to the push lower in the dollar, but at the same time, it might be. So, the EUR/USD has edged to around 1.0910 and the USD/JPY is close to session lows, around 151.85. However, the move of most interest to us might be the push above 1.30 in the GBP/USD. Readers were warned on the prospect of stops being in place above 1.30 and so it seems was the case. The Pound extended relatively quickly to around 1.3018 once that level was taken out. The GBP/USD is just now trading at 1.3014, but it remains to be seen, if the Pound can hold, or perhaps extend this move
