GBPUSD has made a higher low at 1.2250 relative to the May low at 1.2075. This formation could unfold into a bigger leg higher that could eventually push price above 1.28. For this bullish scenario to come true, bulls need to start forming higher highs and higher lows. The last leg up from 1.2250 to 1.2525 is now under correction. This correction needs to provide a higher low around 1.24 in order to fuel the next leg higher. Our preferred strategy is to be bullish around 1.24, with stops at 1.2250 targeting a move above 1.2525 and most probably towards 1.2655.
