Yesterday, the pound, as well as other world currencies (especially the yen), refused to reach technical levels and turned down instead. The pound lost 27 pips, giving up the 1.2420 target. However, this level is very strong, and testing it while the market is neutral is unlikely to provide the pound with more prospects.

Now, the price can overcome the support level at 1.2278 and go down to 1.2155 to assess the new balance of power, as it is the middle of the range since mid-December 2022.

On the four-hour chart, the Marlin oscillator signal line is entering the downtrend area. The price is approaching the support level at 1.2278. The MACD line reached this support level, i.e. these lines coincide on different scales. And if so, a breakthrough of the support will have a strong subsequent impact on the price.
