Pound Sterling Price News and Forecast: GBP/USD reveals pattern

GBP/USD Forecast: Bulls seem non-committed after dovish BoE

The GBP/USD pair kicked off the new week on a positive note and touched an intraday high level of 1.3939 during the early European session.

On Monday, a channel down pattern was spotted. The pattern was formed in the aftermath of the rate passing the resistance of the 1.3940 level and testing the 1.4000 mark.
