GBP/USD short-term review
If the pair finds support in the 1.3000 mark and recovers, a potential recovery might encounter resistance in the previously passed 1.3050/1.3060 zone. Higher above, note that the hourly simple moving averages near 1.3070 and 1.3090 could act as resistance.Meanwhile, a move below 1.3000 would have no technical support on the hourly candle chart, except the weekly S2 simple pivot point at 1.2982.
