GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Attempted rebound from over 1-week low remains capped post-UK retail sales
|• For the second time this week, the pair showed resilience below the 1.3100 handle, or 100-day SMA, and staged a goodish rebound from over one-week lows.
• The positive momentum lacked any strong follow-through/conviction and remained capped following the release of dismal UK monthly retail sales for September.
• Meanwhile, technical indicators on the daily chart have managed to hold with a mild positive bias and continue to point towards an extension of the intraday up-move.
• However, a convincing break below the 1.3080-75 region (weekly lows) will indicate a bearish break and accelerate the fall towards the key 1.30 psychological mark.
