GBPUSD: POUND THE BUCK

3 thg 1, 2020

Despite what seems to be an everlasting downfall, the GBPUSD pair is currently in an uphill battle, literally. Climbing up in its current channel, the price point has recently tested what I consider a 'break-out' but failed. Not losing too much of its momentum, the price point fell from 1.35052 to 1.30844 where it rebounded with nice support. A 'break-out' was then again restested on December 31st but also failed. Despite failure, the price point found support at 1.36012 (higher than the previous support level). Also sitting on the bottom of its uptrend channel, it looks like the Pound is posed for a successful 'break-out' in the coming days. With worldwide tensions rising and pressures mounting against the USD, would this be of much surprise?

P.S. The 12H chart also shows support under the current price level. Both 50 & 200 EMAs are sitting close by. Seemingly, awaiting the right time to push the price point up.
