On Wednesday, the Pound almost reached the 1.1400 mark against the US Dollar. In general, the GBP/USD pair has not been this low since March 2020. However, the combined support of the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.1411 and the 1.1400 mark was enough to cause a retracement back up.

During the early hours of Thursday's European trading, the pair was fluctuating near the 1.1500 level.

Economic Calendar



This week, notable events are over. However, take into account that next week, already on Monday the UK GDP will be published at 06:00 GMT.

GBP/USD short-term view

In the case of the pair resuming its decline, the 1.1450 and 1.1400 levels are expected to once again act as support. Further below, note the 1.1350 level and the weekly S2 simple pivot point at 1.1321.

However, an extension of the recovery might be stopped and reversed by the 1.1550 level and the combination of the 1.1600 mark, the 200-hour simple moving average and the weekly simple pivot point at 1.1585.
