GBPUSD gains last week stalled at Thursday’s high resulting in a strong sell-off. The move down highlights the fact that a bear cycle is still in play. Support at 1.2798 the Jul 24 low, has been breached. This signals scope for an extension lower towards the 50-day EMA at 1.2742. Note that the base of a bull channel, drawn from the Mar 8 low and a key support, lies at 1.2720 today. First key resistance is at 1.2996, last Thursday’s high.
