Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair has been seen approaching the level of 1.3565, which is the key technical support for bulls. The market conditions are now oversold, so a bounce towards the level of 1.3668 might occur before the down move resumes. Any violation of the level of 1.3565 will open the road towards the next target for bears located at 1.3519. On the other hand, only a sustained breakout above the level of 1.3745 would have change the immediate outlook to more bullish.

Trading Outlook:
