GBPUSD is trading closer to its recent highs. The trend condition is bearish and the latest recovery is considered corrective. Moving average studies remain in a bear-mode set-up and the recent break lower, maintains the downward price sequence of lower lows and lower highs. A resumption of the trend would open 1.2266, the Nov 14 2023 low. Resistance to watch is 1.2576, the 50-day EMA. A clear break of this average would be bullish.
