GBP/USD Technical Analysis: Indecision at 9-month-long falling trendline
|The GBP/USD pair is struggling to cross the 9-month-long falling trendline for the third day straight, having charted a big doji candle at that diagonal line yesterday.
Daily chart
- As seen above, the trendline connecting the April and November highs is proving to be a tough but to crack.
- Also, the long-legged doji candle has established 1.2668 as strong support. A close below that would imply an end of the corrective bounce from the December low of 1.2476.
- A daily close above 1.2916 (Doji candle high) will signal a continuation of the rally from 1.2476. That would also mark an upside break of the falling trendline and open the doors to 1.3072 (Nov. 14 high).
Trend: Neutral. bearish below 1.2668
