Daily analysis of GBP/USD for May 21, 2015

The pair remains alive on the downside risk in the daily chart, because there is no bullish price action favored at this time and the current structure seems to be telling us about a corrective move in favor of the upward trend. However, GBP/USD could have another push lower, at least until the support level of 1.5346, in the medium term.

During the yesterday session, GBP/USD recovered from losses almost to the level of 1.5443, after the FOMC's meeting minutes, which didn't have a huge impact on the major pairs. Because of it and the lack of momentum, GBP/USD could do a pullback at the 200 SMA on the H1 chart. So, be cautious when putting short-term long trades.
