Technical analysis of GBP/USD for January 31, 2023

Overview :

The GBPUSD pair traded with strong positivity yesterday to return to the bullish channel that appears on the chart, to head towards achieving expected additional gains in the upcoming sessions, targeting visiting 1.2318 level mainly. Therefore, we expect to witness more bullish bias in the upcoming sessions, noting that breaking 1.2318 and holding above it will stop the positive scenario and push the price to decline again.

The expected trading range for today is between 1.2260 support and 1.2435 resistance. The GBP/USD pair is going to continue to rise from the level of 1.2260 in the long term.

It should be noted that the support is established at the level of 1.2260 which represents the 50% Fibonacci retracement level on the H1 chart.

The price is likely to form a double bottom in the same time frame. Accordingly, the GBP/USD pair is showing signs of strength following a breakout of the highest level of 1.2318.

So, buy above the level of 1.2318 with the first target at 1.2358 in order to test the daily resistance 1 and further to 1.2435.

Also, it might be noted that the level of 1.2435 is a good place to take profit because it will form a double top.

The price is in a bullish channel now. In the Forex market, liquidity pertains to a currency pair's ability to be bought and sold at the current market price.

Additionally, liquidity refers to market volatility and dynamics. Because the Forex market is colossal, it is also extremely liquid. Moreover, if a currency pair has high level of liquidity, it will be easier to trade.

On the other hand, in case a reversal takes place and the GBP/USD pair breaks through the support level of 1.2302, a further decline to 1.2260 can occur which would indicate a bearish market.

Trading recommendations :

The trend is still bullish as long as the price of 1.2260 is not broken. Thereupon, it would be wise to buy above the price of at 1.2260 with the primary target at 1.2358. Then, the GBP/USD pair will continue towards the second target at 1.2435.
