A bearish threat in GBPUSD remains present and S/T gains appear to be corrective - for now. Recent weakness resulted in the break of a key support at the 50-day EMA, signalling scope for a deeper correction. This has opened 1.2584, the May 15 low. For bulls, stronger recovery and a break of 1.2860, the Jun 12 high, would resume the uptrend. Initial firm resistance to watch is 1.2740, the Jun 19 high. A break would highlight an early reversal signal.
