Only thing I can think of is this:

US Central Command released a statement saying a naval blockade will begin at 10am Eastern Time tomorrow [14:00 GMT], April 13. The market most likely in a wait and see mode.

I'm long on GBP/USD again. I'll close this position if it hits my stop-loss, but I'll leave it open for now. It would be great if it breaks upwards from the red box.

I have closed my 3452 short with no loss because of this news. I need to wait and see the response.

IF the US continues with the blockade, it will most likely outweigh this news, because the last negotiations to get Iran to stop enrichment took more than 12 years.
