GBP/USD is losing downside momentum as seen in 4 hour MACD. But upside of recovery is capped by 4 hour 55 EMA so far. Focus remains on 1.2987 support. Decisive break there will confirm that rebound from 1.2865 has completed at 1.3176 already. More importantly, this will revive that bearish case that rebound from 1.2391 has completed at 1.3381. And intraday bias will be turned to the downside for 1.2865 support for confirming bearishness. Nevertheless, on upside, above 1.3176 will target a retest on 1.3381 high next.
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.
