The British pound skyrocketed against the US dollar again on Friday, as fallout from the British central bank suggesting that interest rate hikes are coming sooner rather than later continues. However, we are testing a major resistance barrier in the form of the 1.36 region, which is where we had seen a major gap from the Brexit vote.
