FX.co ★ Technical Analysis of GBP/USD for April 12, 2021

Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair has bounced from the technical support located at the level of 1.3669. This level had been tested twice already and it is the key short-term technical support for bulls. The target for the bounce is located at the level of 1.3745, but of the bounce gets extended, then the price might hit the lower channel boundary located around the level of 1.3795. Please notice, the momentum is still weak and negative, so the bears are still in control of the market and all the bounces are so far the counter-trend corrective in nature.

Trading Recommendations:
