GBP/USD 30-minute chart

GBP/USD is rebounding from the current weekly low as the bulls are challenging the 50 SMA. The market is likely attempting to form a bottom above the 1.2600 figure but it remains unclear when the bulls will show up. A break above 1.2700 should lead to an acceleration to 1.2750. On the flip side, a break below 1.2600 the figure on a daily closing basis could potentially open the doors to a new bear leg to the downside.
