GBPUSD recovered off lows into the Friday close, retaining the bulk of the week’s late recovery. This extends the bounce off 1.1760, the Jul 14 low. The pair has pierced the 50-day EMA - the average intersects at 1.2209. A clear breach would strengthen bullish conditions, signalling scope for a climb towards 1.2332, the Jun 27 high. On the downside, initial firm support to watch lies at 1.1890, the Jul 21 low. A break would signal a resumption of bearish activity.
