GBP/USD’s retreat from 1.3176 temporary top extends lower today but stays above 1.2987 minor support. Intraday bias remains neutral and further rise remains in favor. As noted before, corrective decline from 1.3381 should have completed at 1.2865 already. On the upside, above 1.3176 will target a retest on 1.3381 high next. On the downside, below 1.2987 minor support will dampen this bullish view and turn bias back to the downside for 1.2865 support instead.
In the bigger picture, medium term decline from 1.4376 (2018 high) halted and made a medium term bottom after hitting 1.2391. Rebound from 1.2391 is seen as a corrective move for now. In case of another rise, strong resistance could be seen around 61.8% retracement of 1.4376 to 1.2391 at 1.3618 to limit upside. On the downside, break of 1.2773 support will suggests that such corrective rise is completed and bring retest of 1.2391 low first.
