Overview:
The previous bullish swing put the resistance level of 1.5800 under strong bullish pressure.
Hence, the resistance level of 1.5800 was temporarily breached. Bulls moved towards 1.5900 where the depicted Head and Shoulders reversal pattern was confirmed.
Later, the support level of 1.5555 got breached due to the excessive bearish pressure, which originated at 1.5800.
The GBP/USD pair moved towards the support zone of 1.5170-1.5150 where a valid intraday buy entry was offered especially after the evident bullish rejection, which took place on October 6.
Shortly after, bearish persistence below the level of 1.5200 was needed for a more bearish decline towards the level of 1.4950 (prominent weekly support). However, a temporary bullish breakout above 1.5200 has been expressed on November 15.
Bullish fixation above the price zone of 1.5200-1.5250 allowed a bullish movement towards 1.5330 (the upper limit of the depicted channel). It placed the GBP/USD pair under significant bearish pressure.
This week, bearish persistence below 1.5030 (important key level) is needed to allow a bearish decline towards 1.4950, which corresponds to a previous weekly bottom (Intraday Support level).
On the other hand, a stronger support level is located at 1.4850 (the lower limit of the depicted movement channel).
This is where conservative traders can wait for a low-risk buy entry. S/L should be placed below 1.4780.
