The GBP/USD pair closed well above the psychological hurdle of 1.30 yesterday, strengthening the case for a near-term rally to 1.3175 (Nov. 7 high). The intraday charts, however, indicate a pullback could be in the offing before a rally to 1.3175 unfolds.
Hourly chart
The RSI on the hourly chart has diverged in favor of the bears and could soon find acceptance below the ascending trendline.
The RSI on the 4-hour chart is also reporting overbought conditions above 70.00.
The pair, therefore, could consolidate or fall back to the rising trendline on the hourly chart, currently at 1.3030 before building on the breakout above 1.30 seen yesterday.
Trend: bullish, but minor correction likely
