Overview:

The resistance of GBP/USD pair has broken; it turned to support around the price of 1.1817 last week. Thereby, forming a strong support at 1.1817.

The direction of the GBP/USD pair into the close this week is likely to be determined by trader reaction to 1.1817 and 1.1979. The GBP/USD pair climbed above the level of 1.1817 before it started a downside correction.

The GBP/USD pair set above strong support at the level of 1.1817, which coincides with the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level. This support has been rejected for three times confirming uptrend veracity. Hence, major support is seen at the level of 1.1817 because the trend is still showing strength above it.

The level of 1.1817 coincides with the golden ratio (23.6% of Fibonacci retracement) which is acting as major support today. Another thought; the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is considered overbought because it is above 70.

At the same time, the RSI is still signaling an upward trend, as the trend is still showing strong above the moving average (100), this suggests the pair will probably go up in coming hours.

Accordingly, the market will probably show the signs of a bullish trend. This suggests the pair will probably go up in coming hours. Accordingly, the market is likely to show signs of a bullish trend

In other words, buy orders are recommended above 1.1817 level with their first target at the level of 1.1879. From this point, the pair is likely to begin an ascending movement to the point of 1.1929 and further to the level of 1.1979.

The price of 1.1979 will act as a strong resistance and the double top has already set at the point of 1.2600.

On the other hand, if a break happens at the support of 1.1716, then this scenario may become invalidated.

GBPUSD up and down. Back down testing 61.8% and swing area.

# GBPUSD tests 61.8% and swing area The GBPUSD is in an up and down day. The    GBPUSD  moved higher earlier. That move was helped by better than expected retail sales. However the high price today stalled near the high price from last week near 1.3643, and rotated back lower on the USD buying. The subsequent move lower now has the price back toward the 61.8% retracement along with a swing area between 1.35969 and 1.36034. As I type, the price has dipped below that swing area. What next? If the price can stay below the 1.36034 area, that would be the best case scenario for the sellers with the next major targets coming in at the 100 hour moving average 1.3569 (blue line), and the 200 hour moving average at 1.35609 (green line). The 50% midpoint of the 2022 trading range is just below those levels at 1.35526 and would be a another target on further weakness. A move back above 1.36034 with momentum would have traders looking again toward 1.3618 to 1.36271 and then t...
