The GBP / USD pair, in 4-hour charts, is trading with a bullish bias, supported by the strong support of 1.3549, and below a channel of bearish pressure, and below the 8/8 of murray that acts as a strong resistance.
This consolidation of the GBP / USD pair, could be a sign of a possible bullish movement, of course only if it breaks the 8/8 of murray around 1.3670.
We also notice in the 4 hour chart that it is trying to trade above the 21 day SMA, if the pair remains above this level, a bullish move could occur in the short term.
In contrast, a definitive break below the strong support at 1.3549, and below the 21-period SMA, could accelerate the decline to the 6/8 Murray level, which is also the 200 EMA, about 1.3427.
Our recommendation is to sell the GBP / USD pair, only if it trades below the bearish pressure line and below the 8/8 of murray, with targets at 6/8 of murray in 1.3427.
The market sentiment report for today January 8, shows the figure of 50% of operators who are selling the GBP / USD, which is likely to have a bearish movement in the short term to the 1.3427 area.
