GBP USD Technical Forex Analysis for Forex Traders

Rate two-way, holds gains and has inside range day overnight; stops seen above weekly highs around the 1.4250 area. Tests support on pullback and holds for now. Lows likely remain secure.

Reversal off weekly lows a positive technical but the volume needs to come up and I think the shorts have yet to bail as a group. Traders report stops in-range adding for two-way action. Long-term tech resistance now at 1.5000 area likely to cap near term but stops are building above 1.4400 and the 1.5000 handle is a big psychological number.

Two-way action continues suggesting that shorts are aggressively adding and longs are trying to find a bottom. Short squeeze back on the board I think. Next upside target is 1.4400 area
