GBP/USD short-term review

If the Pound declines against the US Dollar below the 1.3100 mark, the rate could look for support in the 1.3050 level and the weekly S2 simple pivot point at 1.3049. Further below, take into account the 1.3000 mark and the lower trend line of the February channel down pattern.

However, a recovery of the currency exchange rate would have to pass the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.3131, before testing the resistance of the 1.3150 mark, the 50-hour simple moving average and the zone at 1.3162/1.3175.
