GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Sterling bulls challenging the 1.3300 level

  • GBP/USD has found intraday support above the 1.3221 level and the bulls are now currently capped by the 1.3300 figure resistance.  
  • GBP/USD made a false bear breakout as it almost reached the 1.3200 level in early Europe by reaching the 1.3221 level.  
  • A breakout above 1.3300 might lead to a move towards the 1.3350 previous supply/demand level while a failure at 1.3300 can lead to a retest of the 1.3260 level, the 200-period simple moving average on the 15-minute chart.
