The British pound is trading around 1.2483 reaching the top of the downtrend channel on the H1 chart forming since April 10. If the British pound breaks and consolidates above the psychological level of 1.25, we could expect it to return towards the 2/8 Murray where the 200 EMA is located, both at 1.2573. This area is seen as strong resistance.
If the British pound fails to break the downtrend channel, we could expect a technical correction around 0/8 Murray located at 1.2412. If a technical bounce occurs, this will be seen as an opportunity to buy.
Technically, the eagle indicator has been showing oversold signs since April 12. Therefore, we believe that while GBP/USD is trading above 1.2451, any technical bounce will be seen as an opportunity to buy with targets at 1.2571 and 1.2634.
