Sterling Seeks a Stronger Directional Signal 18/11/2025

The pair is trying to base, but 1.3190 resistance is capping upside and limiting consolidation attempts.

Technical outlook

  • RSI: Despite oversold readings, momentum signals remain negative, underscoring a dominant downtrend.
  • 50-SMA (4H): Price still above the average, offering some underlying support—hence the mixed setup.

Trade map (wait for confirmation)

  • Bearish trigger: A decisive break/4H close below 1.3130 would likely extend losses toward 1.3100, then 1.3075.
  • Bullish trigger: A confirmed 1H close above 1.3190 would open room for a corrective push toward 1.3220.

Risk note
Volatility is elevated amid trade/geopolitical headlines. Use prudent sizing and firm stops; reassess quickly if either trigger level gives way.
