The surge of the GBP/USD was testing the resistance of the 1.3600 mark, as the US Fed Meeting Minutes caused a drop back to the 1.3500 level. By late Thursday trading hours, the rate had recovered and made an attempt to pass the 1.3560 level, before retreating below 1.3550.

In the case of a surge, the pair would have to pass the 1.3550 mark and the 50-hour simple moving average, before approaching the 1.3560 level. Higher above, the weekly R1 simple pivot point at 1.3585 and the 1.3600 mark are likely to provide resistance.

On the other hand, a potential decline could look for support in the 100-hour simple moving average at 1.3520. Below the SMA, the 200-hour simple moving average and the weekly simple pivot point are set to provide support near 1.3490.
