GBPUSD
Cable overall picture remains bullish, with near-term price action being in consolidating mode, established within 1.7100/1.7175 range. Near-term studies are neutral, despite brief spike below 1.71 support, as the price recovered ground quickly. Further consolidation is seen as likely near-term scenario, while 1.71 handle stays intact. However, caution is required as long as the price holds at the lower part of the range, as fresh attempt at range’s floor and potential break lower would signal stronger pullback.

Near-term studies improve on recent bounce, with clear break above 0.94 handle, required to confirm recovery, for extension towards 0.9440/60, next strong resistance zone, possibly to re-focus 0.9503 peak, on a break here. Previous consolidation tops at 0.9370 zone, should contain dips, to keep freshly established near-term bulls alive.
