4h
As seen on the 4-hour chart, the GBP/USD pair had all the chances to start falling, as a bearish divergence was formed in the CCI indicator. Although it has not been canceled yet, it is already clear that the pair is ready to continue growth in the direction of the retracement level of 61.8% (1.2969). The passage of the last divergence peak will work in favor of the British pound. A close above the Fibo level of 61.8% will further increase the chances of the pair for further growth in the direction of the retracement level of 76.4% (1.3094).
The Fibo grid is built according to the extremes of September 20, 2018, and January 3, 2019.

The consolidation of the rate below the level of 127.2% will work in favor of the US currency and the resumption of the fall in the direction of the retracement level of 161.8% (1.2842).
The Fibo grid is built according to the extremes of March 29, 2019, and April 3, 2019.
