GBP/USD bounces off 200-hour SMA

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA


The 200-hour simple moving average provided enough resistance for the rate to start a decline. On Wednesday, the rate traded below the 50 and 100-hour simple moving averages near the 1.2720 level.

An extension of the ongoing retracement downwards could result in the GBP looking for support against the US Dollar in the 1.2685/1.2700 range. Further below, note the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.2652 and the 1.2650 mark.

A potential recovery of the GBP/USD might be slowed down by the combination of the 50 and 100-hour simple moving averages, the weekly simple pivot point at 1.2746, before the 200-hour simple moving average would be reached.
