GBP: Looking for catalyst 3/1/2023

The Sterling pound faced a strong resistance level around the psychological barrier of 1.2100, failing to stabilize above it for a long time, forcing it to trade negatively and return to test the support level of 1.2035.

On the technical side, stochastic starts to provide positive crossover signals on the 4-hour interval, and the 50-day simple moving average is still trying to push the price to the upside.

Despite the technical factors that support the possibility of a bullish bias during the current session’s trading, we prefer to confirm the breach of 1.2110, as a sign to confirm the rise towards 1.2140 and 1.2170, respectively.

As a reminder, T trading stability below the strong support floor of 1.2035 will immediately stop attempts to rise, and we see the British pound against the US dollar around 1.2000 and 1.1970 later.
