Technical analysis of the GBP/USD pair for the week (August 17 to 22)

Trend analysis.

This week, the price from the level of 1.3081 (the close of the last weekly candle) will move upwards in order to reach the pullback level of 85.4% - 1.3205 (blue dashed line). If this line is reached, it is possible to continue working upwards with the target of 1.3298 - the historical resistance level (blue thin line).

Technical analysis of the GBP/USD pair for the week (August 17 to 22)

Figure: 1 (weekly chart).

Comprehensive analysis:

- indicator analysis - up;

- Fibonacci levels - up;

- volumes - up;

- candlestick analysis - down;

- trend analysis - up;

- Bollinger lines - up;

- monthly chart - up.

Based on a comprehensive analysis, an upward movement can be concluded.

The general result of calculating the candlestick of the GBP/USD currency pair according to the weekly chart: the price during the week is likely to have an upward trend with the absence of the first lower shadow of the weekly white candlestick (Monday - up) and the absence of the second upper shadow (Friday - up).

The first upper target is the 85.4% pullback level - 1.3205 (blue dotted line). If this line is reached, it is possible to continue working upwards with the target of 1.3298 - the historical resistance level (blue thin line).

An unlikely scenario: from the level of 1.3081 (closing last weekly candle), it will decline in order to reach the support line 1.2957 (black thick line). Upon reaching this level, continue to work upwards with the target of the upper fractal - 1.3184 (red dotted line).
