The Pound Sterling recovered some ground against the US Dollar, though it failed for the second consecutive trading day to reach 1.3000. This exacerbated a pullback toward the current exchange rate, as the GBP/USD trades at 1.2981, slightly above 0.20% of its opening price.
The GBP/USD consolidates at around the bottom trendline of an ascending channel, shy of cracking 1.3000. Momentum has shifted slightly upwards, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) slope pointing up. However, the RSI remains below the latest peak, which, once cleared, would mean that buyers are moving in.
If GBP/USD clears 1.3000, the next resistance would be the October 18 peak at 1.3076 before challenging the October 15 daily high at 1.3102. Once surpassed, the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) would be up at 1.3140.
On the other hand, sellers need to clear the 100-day SMA at 1.2969 before challenging last week's lowest point at 1.2906. On further weakness, bears could drive the GBP/USD to test the 200-day SMA at 1.2803.
The table below shows the percentage change of British Pound (GBP) against listed major currencies today. British Pound was the strongest against the Japanese Yen.
