Intraday bias in GBP/USD is turned neutral again as it retreats sharply after hitting 1.3229. Some consolidations could be seen first, but downside should be contained by 1.3012 resistance turned support to bring rise resumption. On the upside, break of 1.3229 will resume the rise from 1.1958 to 1.3381 resistance next. However, firm break of 1.3012 will confirm short term topping and target 1.2827 support, and possibly below.
In the bigger picture, rise from 1.1958 medium term bottom is seen as the third leg of consolidation from 1.1946. Further rise would be seen back towards 1.4376 resistance. For now, this will remain the favored case as long as 1.2582 resistance turned support holds. However, firm break of 1.2582 will turn focus back to 1.1946 low.
