GBPUSD rallied Monday and cleared resistance at 1.3919, Apr 6 high. This strengthened the S/T bullish theme and exposed the former bull channel base drawn off the Nov 2, 2020 low. The line however intersected at 1.4006 yesterday and has so far capped recent gains - yesterday's high was 1.4009. A break of 1.4009 is required to confirm a resumption of recent strength and open 1.4103, a retracement level. Watch support at 1.3810, Apr 19 low.
