Technical Market Outlook:

The GBP/USD pair has broken through the technical support located at the level of 1.2485 and made a local low at the level of 1.2406. It looks like the rally to the north was corrective in nature and the break out from the channel zone was false. Please notice, that to break out from the short-term descending channel zone, the bull would have to violated the level of 1.2580, which is the key short-term technical resistance for the price. The next target for bears are seen at the levels of 1.2362 and 1.2328.

Trading Recommendations:

On the GBP/USD pair the main trend is down, but the local up trend continues. The key long-term technical support has been recently violated (1.1983) and the new one is seen at the level of 1.1404. The key long-term technical resistance is seen at the level of 1.3518. Only if one of these levels is clearly violated, the main trend might reverse (1.3518) or accelerate (1.1404). The market might have done a Double Top pattern at the level of 1.2645, so the price might move lower in the longer-term.
