Pound Breaks Above Uptrend Line 16/10/2025

GBP/USD has shifted back to positive price action after concluding the prior downswing, with buyers reasserting control in the near term.

Technical:
Momentum is improving as the RSI turns higher, signaling additional upside impulse. On the 4-hour chart, price is trading above the 50-period SMA, which has flipped to dynamic support and is helping underpin the advance.

Base case:
With a clean break above the near-term trend structure, the pair has scope to extend toward 1.3470, with 1.3520 the next resistance if follow-through buying persists.

Alternative:
A decisive move back below 1.3345 would negate the immediate bullish tone and reintroduce downside pressure, exposing 1.3265.

Risk:
Event headlines and geopolitics can trigger abrupt swings. Consider disciplined sizing and clear invalidation levels; conditions may not suit all risk profiles.

Trading CFDs involves risks, and therefore all scenarios may be plausible. The information provided above is not a recommendation to sell or buy but rather an explanatory reading of price movement on the chart.
