GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Converging trend lines form a bearish rising wedge pattern

   “¢   The pair has been steadily recovering from yearly lows but now seemed confined between two converging trend-line, forming a bearish ‘Rising Wedge’ chart pattern on the 4-hourly chart.

   “¢   Technical indicators on hourly charts continue to hold in the positive territory but haven’t been able to catch up with the recent up-move on the daily chart, failing to support any firm direction.

   “¢   Hence, it would be prudent to wait for a decisive break through the mentioned pattern range before traders start positioning aggressively for the pair’s next leg of a directional move.
