GBPUSD traded in a choppy manner last week. Price remains below the Oct 12 high of 1.3083. A break of this level is needed to resume the recent uptrend that would open 1.3000 and 1.3186. The latter is the former trendline support drawn off the Mar 20 low. The trendline was breached on Sep 9. A break of 1.3186 is required to strengthen a bullish theme. On the downside, firm near-term support lies at 1.2846. A breach of this level would instead signal scope for a deeper pullback.
