On January 27, the British pound fell to the area of 3/8 Murray around 1.3366. From this level, GBP/USD began a rebound which is now approaching 7/8 Murray and is showing signs of exhaustion.

From a technical viewpoint, the pound turned bullish with the sustained advance above the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement,4/8 Murray and the 21 SMA, all at the same level, which helped the recovery of the pair.

Currently, GBP/USD is trading above the 200 EMA and above the 6/8 Murray. This is a clear sign that the pound could continue its uptrend towards the level 1.3750.

However, the pound should make a technical correction towards the 200 EMA in order to consolidate and gain momentum for another bullish sequence.
