GBPUSD showed above the Tuesday high ahead of the London close, confirming the recent downtick as corrective in the pair. The primary trend direction remains up and sights are on 1.2546, the Apr 14 high and bull trigger. Clearance of this level would resume the uptrend for 1.2599, the Jun 7 2022 high. To the downside, support is at the 20-day EMA - at 1.2398. This average has been pierced and a clear break of it is required to suggest scope for a deeper correction that would open 1.2291, the 50-day EMA.
