- GBP/USD is having a shallow pullback up after the losses seen earlier in the session. GBP/USD has reached a new 2018 low and is currently trading just below the 50-period simple moving average and 1.2957, the July 17 low.
- Bears objective is to keep GBP/USD below the 1.2957 and 1.2987 (Friday’s swing low) resistances in order to keep the bear trend intact. On the other hand, bulls want the trade above 1.2987 in order to create a bullish reversal.
- As the main trend is bearish and there is no sign of a bottom, GBP/USD should react to the downside near and below 1.2957-1.2987 area. If bulls push through the zone a deeper pullback might be in the making.
