Today, the level of 1.2935 represents a weekly pivot point in the H1 time frame.
The pair has already formed minor resistance at 1.2935 and the strong resistance is seen at the level of 1.3030 because it represents the weekly resistance 1.
So, major resistance is seen at 1.3030, while immediate support is found at 1.2900.
This resistance (1.3030) has been rejected two times confirming the validity of a downtrend.
Please notice that this scenario will be invalidated if the price reverses above the wave 2 highs at the level of 1.3030.
If the pair closes below the weekly pivot point of 1.4478, the GBP/USD pair may resume it movement to 1.2900 to test the weekly support 1.
From this point, we expect the GBP/USD pair to move between the levels of 1.2963 and 1.2762.

Nevertheless, stop loss should always be taken into account, accordingly, it will be of beneficial to set the stop loss above the last bullish wave at the level of 1.3030. But, we still expect the bearish trend for the upcoming sessions as long as the price is below the 1.3030 price.
