GBP/USD maintains positive long-term dynamics, trading in the zone above the long-term support levels 1.3800, 1.3670. The break of the important short-term resistance level 1.3913 will be the second signal confirming the resumption of the uptrend. And an increase in the zone above the resistance levels 1.3970 (Fibonacci level 38.2% of the correction to the decline of the GBP/USD pair in the wave that began in July 2014 near the level 1.7200), 1.3998 will indicate the renewal of the GBP/USD bullish trend.
In an alternative scenario and after the breakdown of the support levels 1.3800, 1.3670 GBP/USD may fall to the support levels 1.3320, 1.3210. Their breakdown will increase the risks of a resumption of the global bearish trend in GBP/USD and may provoke a deeper decline towards the support levels 1.2250, 1.2085, 1.2000 (Fibonacci level 0%).
