FX.co ★ GBP/USD: could buyers take it higher?

GBP/USD Up Channel!

The GBP/USD pair is trading at the 1.3757 level right above the uptrend line. You can see that the pair increased within an up-channel pattern. As long as it stays within this formation, the price could resume its upwards movement towards fresh new highs.

In the short term, GBP/USD has slipped lower after reaching the upside line of the ascending channel, which stands as dynamic resistance, an upside obstacle. Now is located below a minor downtrend line which represented an immediate upside obstacle.

GBP/USD Trading Conclusion!

Staying above the uptrend line, within the ascending channel's body, and jumping above the minor downtrend line is seen as a buying opportunity. An upside continuation could be invalidated only if the rate drops and stabilizes below the uptrend line.
