FX.co ★ Technical analysis of GBP/USD for August 10, 2020

Overview:

The GBP/USD pair is still trading upwards from the level of 1.3050. Last week, the pair rose from the level of 1.3050 (weekly support) to the top around 1.3148. But it rebounded again from last week's top to close at 1.3050. Today, the first support level is seen at 1.3106 followed by 1.3050, while daily resistance is seen at 1.3182. According to the previous events, the GBP/USD pair is still moving between the levels of 1.3050 and 1.3182; for that we expect a range of 132 pips in coming hours. This would suggest a bullish market because the RSI indicator is still in a positive area and does not show any trend-reversal signs. Furthermore, if the trend is able to break out through the first resistance level of 1.3182, we should see the pair climbing towards the new double top (1.3240). On the contrary, if a breakout takes place at the support level of 1.3050, then this scenario may become invalidated. Remember to place a stop loss; it should be set below the second support of 1.2969.
