Technical Analysis of GBP/USD for June 5, 2023

Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair had reversed sharply lower after the technical resistance level seen at 1.2550 was too strong to be broken. The bears moved below all of the MA levels and the next target for bears is seen at 1.2348 (intraday technical support). The momentum reversed sharply from the extremely overbought conditions on the H4 time frame as well and is currently moving below the level of fifty. There is still a room for a momentum and price to move lower, so the short-term outlook remains bearish.

Weekly Pivot Points:

WR3 - 1.25080

WR2 - 1.24565

WR1 - 1.24223

Weekly Pivot - 1.24050

WS1 - 1.23708

WS2 - 1.23535

WS3 - 1.23020

Trading Outlook:

A Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern on the Weekly time frame chart 100 pips away from the 61% Fibonacci retracement located at the level of 1.2778 might indicate the corrective cycle to the upside had been terminated. Any sustained breakout below the technical support at 1.2444 will be the first indication of stronger bearish pressure.
