GBP/USD H4 charts
GBP/USD is on the backside of the bullish market but is riding a micro-bull trend for the time being. 1.2200 is key in this regard. While holding above 1.2200, the focus is on the upside with the bulls taking on equal highs from February in the upper quarter of the 1.22 area. Eyes are on the 1.2320s at this juncture.
If the bears move in, considering that the price is on the backside of the prior dominant bull trend, then there will be prospects of a break of the micro bull trend and structure in and around 1.2200. If this were to give, then the bears will be considered to be back in control again.
