GBP/USD 4-hour chart

GBP/USD spiked above the 1.2800 figure.


GBP/USD 30-minute chart

GBP/USD is challenging the 1.2800 figure and the 200 SMA. The market will probably continue consolidating in the 1.2700-1.2800 band before any meaningful move in either direction. However, bulls seem to have regained some modest ground. A break above 1.2800 the figure can lead to 1.2880 resistance. Immediate support is at 1.2740 and 1.2860 level.
