The GBPUSD has spiked above 1.4600 zone and as I have shown in the latest AUDUSD coverage very often a retracement is mistaken for a trend change which is wrong. Similarly to AUDUSD (which has perfectly rejected from POC making 180 possible pips), the GBPUSD is in a similar situation. Any retracement towards POC zone could be considered another sell into rally with the 1.4255-40 as the target zone.
POC (Xcross, 50.0, EMA89, Bearish order block) comes within 1.4500-10 zone. Rejections from the zone target 1.4375 and 1.4240. Around 1.4240 the price might bounce making another retracement to the upside. A strong 1H momentum or 4h close below 1.4375 should also tank the price towards 1.4240.
The analysis and the article presents Nenad's opinion. Remember, financial trading is highly speculative & may lead to the loss of your funds. Proper risk management is the Holy Grail of trading.
