GBP/USD Intraday Technical Analysis and Trading Recommendations for August 30, 2012


The GBP/USD pair has resumed its bullish movement recording a higher high last Thursday at 1.5912 after breaking through 1.5750 and reaching the upper limit of the depicted channel which served as supply zone for the pair.

GBP/USD bullish movement was maintained within the depicted movement channel. However, on Friday the market witnessed some expected bearish retracement which was seen on Tuesday too.

The lower limit of the movement channel as well as the significant Support level, located between 1.5750-1.5770, were tested showing a strong bullish price action which indicated a valid low risk BUY entry as expected with SL located below 1.5700.

The most significant Resistance level is located around 1.5910; this price level was tested last week expressing obvious bearish reaction which pushed the GBP/USD pair towards the lower limit of the depicted movement channel yesterday. That's why bullish movement should break through this level in order to make other bullish swings.

Breakthrough above price level of 1.5850 is essential today in order to reach the next resistance level at 1.5910.
