GBPUSD bulls are pausing at their highest level since February 2020, marking six days of gains despite a slow market atmosphere. That said, the Pound Sterling is facing a liquidity squeeze as we approach key data and events this week, which could impact its upward momentum at these multi-month highs. Pullback appears imminent but bulls can keep the reins Apart...
The GBPUSD saw its first daily gain in three days on Wednesday, bouncing back from the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This move shows the 100-SMA support level at 1.2682 is holding strong, and the descending RSI (14) indicates the downtrend is weak. However, the Pound Sterling’s continued dip below the 50-SMA and previous support level near 1.2785-2800,...
GBPUSD stays defensive after recovering from a one-month low in the last two days. That said, the Cable pair’s latest inaction could be linked to the trader’s cautious mood ahead of the UK’s top-tier data/events, namely Wednesday’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Thursday’s Bank of England (BoE) Monetary Policy Announcements. However, the quote’s sustained trading...
GBPUSD remains pressured within a six-week-old descending triangle as market players await the Bank of England’s (BoE) monetary policy announcements. In doing so, the Cable pair justifies the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) hawkish halt, as well as expectations suggesting the BoE’s rate cut in 2024. It’s worth noting, however, that the 50-SMA level of 1.2670 and an...
GBPUSD floats above the 200-bar Exponential Moving Average (EMA) as traders brace for the monthly activity data from the UK and the US early Wednesday. In doing so, the Cable pair reverses the previous day’s losses while staying firmer within a one-month-old descending triangle formation, also known as the bullish triangle. Apart from the pair’s recovery from the...
GBPUSD remains pressured at the lowest level in eight days after breaking a five-week-long trend line support the previous day. Apart from the support break, bearish MACD signals and an absence of oversold RSI also keep the Cable sellers hopeful. With this, the quote’s further downside toward the 1.2600 support confluence, comprising a 50% Fibonacci retracement of...
GBPUSD prints mild losses around 1.2700 early Monday, after snapping a three-week uptrend in the last. In doing so, the Cable pair justifies the previous week’s downside break of a two-month-old rising support line, now immediate resistance around 1.2765, as well as fades the bounce off a 200-SMA level surrounding 1.2635. However, the upbeat conditions of the RSI...
GBPUSD extends the late 2023 pullback from a five-month-old horizontal resistance area towards 1.2700 during early Tuesday. In doing so, the Cable pair justifies the RSI (14) line’s retreat from the overbought region, as well as the sluggish MACD signals. However, the bull cross on the SMA joins the quote’s sustained trading beyond an ascending trend line from...
GBPUSD remains on the way to posting a weekly loss after declining in the last four consecutive days, pressured around 1.2220 during early Friday. The Cable pair’s U-turn from the seven-week-old horizontal resistance area and the broadly firmer US Dollar join bearish MACD signals to underpin the downside bias. However, the cautious mood ahead of the key UK GDP and...
GBPUSD picks up bids to extend the previous day’s rebound from an eight-month-old ascending support line as the Cable traders await the Bank of England (BoE) monetary policy decision on Thursday. While recovering from the stated support line, the Pound Sterling respects the upward-sloping RSI (14) line and the bullish MACD signals, which in turn suggests the...
GBPUSD prints mild losses below 1.2200 during early Wednesday as market players await the UK inflation data while consolidating the week-start gains of the Cable pair. That said, a likely easing inflation pressure in Britain joins the downbeat RSI (14) and the impending bear cross on the MACD keeps the pair sellers hopeful. With this, the quote’s fall toward the...
GBPUSD seesaws at a three-week high ahead of the UK data dump, probing a six-day winning streak. However, the RSI (14) line steadies near the overbought region and joins a looming bear cross on the MACD to suggest that the bulls are running out of steam. With this, a pullback towards the late September swing high of around 1.2270 becomes imminent but a convergence...
GBPUSD remains pressured at the lowest level in seven months, reversing the previous week’s corrective bounce, as the Cable traders await final prints of the UK S&P Global/CIPS PMIs for September. It’s worth noting that a clear downside break of an eight-month-old horizontal support zone joins the bearish MACD signals to keep the Pound Sterling bears hopeful....
GBPUSD stays depressed at the six-month low even as bears struggle with a horizontal area comprising multiple levels marked since early February. Also challenging the downside bias is the oversold RSI (14) line. With this, a corrective bounce toward May’s bottom of around 1.2310 can be witnessed. However, the 200-SMA on the daily chart, around 1.2435 at the...
GBPUSD renews a 5.5-month low while extending the previous week’s downside break of the 200-day SMA, as well as drilling the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of March-July upside. In doing so, the Cable pair ignores the oversold RSI (14) line while taking clues from the bearish MACD signals, which in turn suggests limited downside room for the Pound Sterling. As a...
GBPUSD consolidates losses made in the last three consecutive weeks ahead of the UK’s employment report. Adding strength to the recovery momentum is the RSI (14) line’s rebound from the oversold territory, as well as a six-week-old falling wedge bullish chart formation, which in turn suggests an immediate run-up to cross the 1.2600 round figure. However, the...
GBPUSD managed to confuse pair sellers last week by defending a one-month-long falling wedge bullish chart pattern despite declining in the later days. Also challenging the Cable pair’s downside is a weeklong rising support line, as well as a nearly oversold RSI (14) line. It’s worth noting, however, that the MACD still flashes the bearish signals and hence the...
