GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Upside calling focus on today’s close

  • For GBP/USD, the path of least resistance is on the higher side, the higher highs and higher lows, ascending 50-hour, 100-hour and 200-hour MAs indicate.
  • The currency pair closed well above 1.3087 (Tuesday’s doji candle high) yesterday, adding credence to the bullish setup on the hourly chart.
  • A close today above the trendline connecting the July 6 high and July 9 high would accentuate the bull case and could yield a sustained move above 1.3204 (May 29 high).
