GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week | Follow-up
Updated
GBPUSD turns positive for the fourth straight week but this time around did a significant breakout of the 1.25000 level - climbing to a two-week high on Friday to set the tone for a bullish momentum ahead of the new month. However, bets for another 25 bps rate hike by the US Fed Reserve in the coming week could tilt an imbalance in the market influx. It is also important to note that the coming week is laced with a handful of high-impact macroeconomic event that could incite a choppy situation in this market.

A breakout of the 1.257000 will need confirmationNote
Price action finally breaks out of the range identified at the beginning of the week (1.25700 & 1.25420) but has since been resisted by selling pressure at the 1.25910 Zone. We are going to monitor how price action reacts to this zone. A breakdown of the 1.25700 followed by rejection of this zone will probably incite selling opportunities. Good morning
