GBP/USD Weekly Outlook

GBP/USD dipped to 1.3319 last week but quickly recovered. Nonetheless as upside is limited below 1.3549 so far, initial bias remains neutral tis week first. We’ll slightly favor another rise as long as 1.3220 support holds. Break of 1.3549 will target 1.3651 high next. However, firm break of 1.3220 will turn near term outlook bearish for 1.3038 key support level.

In the bigger picture, while the medium term rebound from 1.1946 low was strong, it’s limited below 1.3835 key support turned resistance. As long as 1.3835 holds, we’d view such rebound as a correction. That is, we’d expect another leg in the long term down trend through 1.1946 low. However, sustained break of 1.3835 should at least send GBP/USD to 38.2% retracement of 2.1161 (2007 high) to 1.1946 (2016 low) at 1.5466.

In the longer term picture, long the outlook is turned a bit mixed as GBP/USD failed to sustain above long term falling tend line resistance, nor 1.3835 key resistance. We’ll stay neutral first and assess the outlook again and price actions unfold.
