GBPUSD Chart Analysis
With Trump's reciprocal tariff announcement increasing market volatility, GBPUSD swiftly broke through the previously resistant 1.30000 level. In the short term, an upward move toward 1.31500 is expected. If it breaks above 1.31500, further gains toward 1.34000 are likely. However, if resistance is encountered in this range, a pullback toward 1.28500 could occur, making it crucial to monitor price action at resistance levels.
