Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2919; (P) 1.2955; (R1) 1.3004; More…
GBP/USD’s breach of 1.2987 resistance suggests that recent rally is resuming. Intraday bias is back on the upside. Based on broad based weakness in dollar, further rally would be seen. But at this point, price actions from 1.1946 are still viewed as a corrective pattern. Hence, we’d expect upside to be limited below 1.3444 to complete the correction. Though, break of 1.2844 support is needed to indicate short term topping. Otherwise, further rise would be in favor in case of retreat.
In the bigger picture, fall from 1.7190 is seen as part of the down trend from 2.1161. There is no sign of medium term reversal yet. Sustained trading below 61.8% projection of 2.1161 to 1.3503 from 1.7190 at 1.2457 will target 100% projection at 0.9532. Overall, break of 1.3444 resistance is needed to confirm medium term bottoming. Otherwise, outlook will remain bearish.
