The surge of the GBP/USD currency pair has continued, as the pair has reached the upper trend line of the channel up pattern. On Monday, the pattern's trend line was pierced. However, after the event, the pair returned to the 1.2950 level.

A continuation of the surge would have to break the channel's trend line, before approaching the resistance of the 1.3000 mark and the weekly R1 simple pivot point at 1.3009. If the pair moves above the 1.3000 level, the pair might stop at the 2024 high level at 1.3045.

In the case of a decline of the Pound against the US Dollar, support is expected to be looked for in the 1.2900 mark and the 50-hour simple moving average. In addition, take into account the weekly simple pivot point at 1.2878 and the 100-hour SMA. If these levels fail to hold, the 1.2850/1.2870 range is expected to act as support.
