Technical Analysis of GBP/USD for August 21, 2023

Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair has been seen trading between the 50 and 100 periods moving average as the volatility has decreased. The next target for bears is seen at the level of 1.2590, which is the key short-term technical support level. The recent momentum breakout into the positive territory on the H4 time frame chart supports the short-term bullish outlook for GBP. Only a strong reversal and a breakout above the local supply zone located between the levels of 1.2762 - 1.2797 would change the short-term bearish outlook. Reversal confirmation comes with the level of 1.2826 breakout (100 DMA level).

Only a sustained breakout blow the technical support seen at the level of 1.1775 would change the outlook to bearish.
