GBPUSD stopped the advance after the break out right below the horizontal resistance area around 1.32. Bulls need to recapture 1.32 and stay above it in order for the pair to continue higher towards 1.3360-1.3390. Forming a higher low in the current pull back would be the ideal scenario for bulls. GBPUSD is vulnerable to a pull back towards 1.3080 so traders better be patient with buying and should only consider if price reaches 1.3080 or breaks above resistance.
