GBP/USD hourly chart analysis

On the shorter time frames, the key resistance level at 1.36500 has been tested several times, with price action repeatedly failing to sustain a break above this level and subsequently retreating below 1.36000. If bullish momentum remains insufficient to secure a breakout above 1.36500, the pair may come under renewed pressure. In such a scenario, support around 1.35400 could be tested as sellers look to capitalize on the lack of upward drive.
