GBPUSD gains are considered corrective and the pair remains soft following last week’s acceleration of the downtrend. Price has cleared 1.2974, Apr 13 low and 1.2676, last printed in September 2020. The trend remains in oversold territory. However a reversal pattern is still required to signal a short-term base and possible reversal. The focus is 1.2423 next, a Fibonacci projection. Friday’s high of 1.2614 marks initial resistance.
