GBPUSD initially traded lower Wednesday, retreating to 1.4112 before bouncing back into positive territory ahead of the close. This follows a failed test on key resistance at 1.4237, Feb 24 high and the bull trigger. The outlook however remains bullish and a clear breach of this hurdle would confirm a resumption of the broader uptrend that started March 2020. This would open 1.4315, April 18, 2018 high. On the downside, initial firm support is at 1.4092, May 27 low where a break would instead suggest scope for a deeper corrective pullback.
