GBPUSD remains vulnerable but the rally Wednesday has eased recent bearish pressure. Key near-term resistance is at 1.3374, the Dec 16 high. A break of this hurdle would suggest scope for a stronger bounce towards the 50-day EMA at 1.3414. On the downside, a return lower would instead signal a resumption of the recent bearish threat and attention would turn to support at 1.3163, the Dec 8 low and bear trigger.
