GBP/USD pierces support

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA


The broader strength of the US Dollar has resulted in the GBP/USD pair passing below the 1.2548/1.2579 range. However, the event has not been followed by a larger decline of the rate. During Tuesday's European trading hours, the rate fluctuated around the pierced support zone, as if confirming it as resistance before resuming the broader decline.

A resumption of the GBP decline against the USD Dollar is expected to look for support in the combination of the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.2515 and the 1.2500 mark. Further below, note the weekly S2 at 1.2447.

On the other hand, a move above the 1.2580 level could be stopped by the descending 50, 100 and 200-hour simple moving averages near the 1.2600 mark. Higher above, take into account the weekly simple pivot point at 1.2631.
