GBPUSD edged higher into the Monday close, however, the trend condition remains bearish. The reversal from recent highs signals the end of a corrective phase between Oct 4 - 11 and this has exposed the bear trigger at 1.2037, the Oct 4 low. A break of this level would confirm a resumption of the downtrend that started in July and open 1.1964, a Fibonacci projection. For bulls, a break of 1.2337, the Oct 11 high, is required to signal scope for a stronger corrective phase.
