GBP/USD ended the session in a relatively tight range below 1.2650 after the US Bureau of Economic Analysis released data on the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, the preferred measure of inflation of the Federal Reserve (Fed). Despite the UK's positive GDP report, it still cannot lift the strength of the GBP too much,
After recovering from the week's low hit last Wednesday, the GBP/USD pair limited losses and remained below the psychological level of 1,270, a key threshold for buyers to regain control. Sellers are also under less pressure as they face strong support at the 1.256 area because there is a gap in liquidity at a fairly wide price range. Previously, at the support area of 1,260, the profit-taking area of investors last month was also an area to pay attention to for scalping signals.
The relative strength index (RSI) shows that sellers remain in control, meaning more losses are expected.
