Technical analysis of GBP/USD for 17/01/2020:

Technical Market Overview:

The GBP/USD pair has broken out from the main descending channel around the level of 1.3055 and made a local high at the level of 1.3085 (at the time of writing the analysis). Due to the strong momentum, the next target for bulls is seen at the level of 1.3101 or even at 1.3121 - 1.3131. Nevertheless, the nature of the current move up is still corrective, so when it is completed, another wave down is being anticipated.

Weekly Pivot Points:

WR3 - 1.3350

WR2 - 1.3274

WR1 - 1.3145

Weekly Pivot - 1.3077

WS1 - 1.2952

WS2 - 1.2870

WS3 - 1.2758

Trading Recommendations:

The best strategy for current market conditions is to trade with the larger timeframe trend, which is up, so all downward market moves will be treated as local corrections in the uptrend. In order to reverse the trend from up to down in the longer term, the key level for bulls is seen at 1.2756 and it must be clearly violated. The key long-term technical support is seen at the level of 1.2231 - 1.2224 and the key long-term technical resistance is located at the level of 1.3509.
