GBPUSD | Perspective for the new week | Follow-up

Updated
A follow-up video to the previous analysis on the GBPUSD where we scooped over 400 pips profit (see link below for reference purposes).
The US dollar continues to plunge since the beginning of the year as fear of recession mounts. To further mount pressure on the Greenback is the data from the U.S. retail sales which fell by the most in a year in December and manufacturing output recorded its biggest drop in nearly two years, stoking fears that the world's largest economy is headed for a recession. In this regard, this video shed a technical light on the current market structure where the identification of flat channel around the 1.24000 and 1.23350 will serve as a yardstick for trading activities for the new week.
