GBPUSD traded sharply lower Tuesday to confirm a resumption of the current bear cycle and still remains soft despite the shallow recovery rally posted Thursday. The break lower has resulted in a print below key support at 1.1842, the Jan 6 low. A clear break of this level would highlight a potential medium-term reversal and confirm a double top pattern on the daily frequency. This would open 1.1647, a Fibonacci retracement. Initial resistance is seen at 1.1915, the Feb 17 low.
