GBP/USD Price Analysis: Buyers stay hopeful above 1.3195 support confluence

  • GBP/USD prints four-day winning streak, recently picking up bids from 1.3144.
  • 10-day SMA, two-week-old rising trend line offer near-term strong support.
  • Monthly top, September high stay on the bulls’ radars.

GBP/USD ticks up to 1.3260, gaining 0.06% intraday, during the pre-Tokyo open trading on Wednesday. In doing so, the Cable keeps Friday’s recovery moves from 10-day SMA and an ascending trend line from November 02 amid bullish MACD signals.

GBP/USD buyers currently eye the 1.3300 round-figure ahead of targeting the monthly peak surrounding 1.3315.

During the quote’s sustained rise past-1.3315, the 1.3400 threshold can offer an intermediate halt before propelling the bulls toward September’s high near 1.3485.

Alternatively, a daily closing below 1.3195 support joint can quickly challenge the previous week’s low near 1.3105.

Though, the 1.3100 mark may stop the GBP/USD bears from attacking the monthly low of 1.2854.

The Iran war didn't break the US economy, but what happens next?

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed. The FOMC held its benchmark at 3.50%-3.75% for the fourth straight meeting, exactly as priced, and then the new chair used his first press conference to dismantle the machinery the market has leaned on for a decade.
