GBPUSD continues to trade below its Oct 24 high. The trend outlook is unchanged and remains bearish. Attention is on 1.2037, Oct 4 low and bear trigger. Clearance of this level would resume the downtrend that started in July and open 1.1964, a 3.00 projection of the Jul 14 - 24 - 27 price swing. For bulls, clearance of 1.2337, the Oct 11 high, would signal scope for a stronger corrective cycle and highlight a short-term base.
