GBPUSD traded higher Tuesday and the pair is holding on to this week’s gains. The climb undermines the recent bearish theme and price has traded above the 20-day EMA - at 1.2804. A continuation higher would highlight a stronger reversal and signal scope for a climb towards 1.2955, a Fibonacci retracement. Key support has been defined at 1.2665, the Aug 8 low, where a break is required to once again resume recent bearish activity.
