The GBP/USD currency pair witnessed quick decline from 1.6120 towards 1.5730 during last week.

 

The GBP/USD has Intraday support zone located around 1.5740 - 1.5760 which prevented further decline showing significant bullish price action.

Now the upper limit of the Violet channel was broken to the upside Yesterday while Resistance zone 1.5840-1.5860 is still being tested by the GBP/USD pair which if broken will probably allow the pair to reach the upper limit of the Blue channel and the next Intraday resistance zone at 1.5940-1.5960.

After a bullish price action towards 1.5740, this price level is considered a valid BUY entry with tight SL below 1.5700.
