Since September, the GBP/USD pair has been demonstrating a successful bullish breakout above the depicted daily downtrend line which came to meet the pair around 1.3025-1.3090.
On September 21, the GBP/USD failed to demonstrate sufficient bullish momentum above 1.3296. The short-term outlook turned to become bearish to test the backside of the broken uptrend.
On H4 chart, the GBP/USD pair looked oversold around the price levels of 1.2700 where profitable BUY entries were suggested.
As for the bullish DAILY breakout scenario to remain valid, quick bullish breakout above 1.3000 (50% Fibo level) was achieved two weeks ago.
This enhanced further bullish advancement towards the price level of 1.3170-1.3200 where the depicted downtrend came to meet the GBP/USD pair.
Last week, signs of bearish rejection were demonstrated around the price zone of 1.3170-1.3200 (the depicted downtrend).
This initiated the current bearish pullback towards the depicted demand-zone of (1.2850-1.2780) where early signs of bullish rejection were recently demonstrated. The price level of 1.2980 is the key-level for short-term expectations.
Bullish fixation above 1.2980-1.3000 is needed to allow further bullish advancement towards 1.3150 where the depicted downtrend line comes to meet the GBP/USD pair. Otherwise, the pair remains trapped between 1.2980 and 1.2850.
