GBPUSD has dipped on softer core reading, but subsequently was bought from 4600 zone. CPI came as expected so pound is trading in between 1.4600-1.4700 range. Technically the pair is struggling to break 1.4700 and that is expected because it is H3,50.0 confluence + we can see a historical breakout –retest spot at the zone. 1.4700-05 is the zone where pair might reject BUT bearish scenario would only resume if the pair gets INTO the equidistant channel again which shows a perfect confluence with L5. So if it rejects from POC towards L4 then breaks L4 and into L5 ( equidistant channel) ONLY then we can say that the pair will proceed with bearish trend. Until then if the pair jumps above 1.4745 (61.8, L4 ) it would negate bearish momentum and might put the pair into Neutral to Bullish trend over next couple of sessions.
