FX.co ★ GBPUSD pulls back towards 1.21 as expected.

Green line -resistance

Blue line- support (broken)

In our previous posts we mentioned many times our expectation for a pull back at least towards the blue upward sloping support trend line. GBPUSD as we mentioned yesterday, was not following EURUSD to new highs, instead it formed a double top, implying that the up trend is weak. GBPUSD is under pressure. Price has reached our short-term pull back target of 1.2160 and has also broken below it. This makes it vulnerable to even more downside towards 1.19-1.18. GBPUSD is currently trading around 1.2060-1.2070 where we find the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the last leg up from 1.1877. This is short-term support. It is important to see by the end of the day and on Monday if bulls will manage to defend this support level. If not then we should expect to see price below 1.20.
