GBP/USD surged to as high as 1.3944 last week and broken 1.3835 key resistance. At this point, the pair seems to be struggling to find follow through buying this level. But still, as long 1.3741 minor support holds, further rally is expected. Sustained trading above 1.3835 could trigger upside acceleration to 100% projection of 1.2108 to 1.3651 from 1.3038 at 1.4581 next. However, on the downside, break of 1.3741 minor support will indicate rejection from 1.3835 and turn bias to the downside for 1.3457.
In the bigger picture, sustained break of 1.3835 key resistance level will indicate that rebound from 1.1946 is at least correcting the long term down from from 2007 high at 2.1161. In that case, further rise should be seen back to 38.2% retracement of 2.1161 (2007 high) to 1.1946 (2016 low) at 1.5466. Nonetheless, rejection from 1.3835 will maintain medium term bearishness and thus, the risk retesting 1.1946 ahead.
In the longer term picture, long term bullish outlook is starting to get more conviction now. Still, sustained break of 1.3835 resistance is needed to confirm. And in that case, rise from 1.1946 should at least be correction whole long term down trend form 2.1161 and should target 38.2% retracement of 2.1161 (2007 high) to 1.1946 (2016 low) at 1.5466.
