GBP/USD - Recent False Break Sends A Warning To Bulls

By Justin Mcqueen  —  Aug 21 - 04:45 AM
  • 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

  • Thus, while it appears difficult to fight this recent dollar downtrend

  • There are signs warning over chasing dollar lower from current levels

  • 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
