Tuesday's false break of prior YTD high (1.3044) signals topside exhaustion
This is a warning for GBP/USD bulls given the risk of a reversal
A false break occurs when a key level is breached but quickly reverses

For cable to negate the bull trap risk, a close above 1.3044-54 is required
Near-term support at 1.30 (55HMA) and 1.2940-50
Today's focus will be on NFP revisions. Though, Fed impact likely minimal
