- Time Frame: H1
- Pivot point: 1.2217
Overview:
- The GBP/USD pair dropped sharply from the level of 1.2217 towards the 1.2081 price during the last two days.
- Today, the first resistance level is seen at 1.2217 (pivot) followed by 1.2303, while daily support 1 is found at 1.2081 and the level of 1.1994 will represent the second support at H1.
- According to the previous events, we expect the GBP/USD pair to trade between 1.2217 and 1.1994.
- The GBP/USD pair is continuing to trade in a bearish trend from the new support level of 1.2217; to form a bearish channel.
- Therefore, the market is likely to show signs of a bearish trend around the spot of 1.2217.
- It should be noted that volatility is very high for that the GBP/USD pair is still moving below the major level of 1.2217 in coming hours.
- Since the trend is below the 38.2% Fibonacci level (1.2248), the market is still in a downtrend. Overall, we still prefer the bearish scenario.
