GBP/USD — 4H Technical Update
The setup is broadly unchanged: price action is muted and the downtrend remains the dominant theme.
Technical outlook
- RSI: Still printing negative signals despite oversold readings—evidence of persistent bearish momentum.
- 50-SMA (4H): Price is holding above the average, providing some underlying support—hence the mixed picture.
Trade map (wait-for-confirmation)
- Bearish trigger: A decisive break/4H close below 1.3130 would likely extend the slide toward 1.3100, then 1.3075.
- Bullish trigger: A confirmed 1H close above 1.3190 would open scope for a corrective push toward 1.3220.
Event risk
- FOMC minutes today could inject volatility—consider tighter risk controls around the release.
Risk note
Backdrop remains headline-sensitive. Use prudent sizing and firm stops; reassess quickly if either trigger level gives way.
