GBP/USD

Higher timeframes

Over the past day, the situation has also not undergone significant changes. The pound market continues to consolidate in the area of the weekly short-term trend (1.0282). For bears, it is important to overcome the support (1.2026 – 1.2000) and liquidate the daily golden cross (1.1963) in the near future. For bulls, the following reference points are important: 1.2148 (daily short-term trend) – 1.2195 (lower limit of the daily cloud) – 1.2293 (maximum extremum).

H4 – H1

The pair continues to work below the weekly long-term trend (1.2108), keeping the location in the zone of attraction of the central pivot point of the day (1.2088). Positioning below key levels favors bears. Their reference points today can be noted at 1.2047 – 1.2020 – 1.1979 (support of the classic pivot points). Consolidation above 1.2108 will change the current balance of power. Intraday reference points, in this case, will be 1.2115 – 1.2156 – 1.2183 (resistance of classical pivot points).
